I have been fooling with circles - inspired by Marks Glass Button tutorial-
and I have noticed that when I select a circle and go to selection - modify - contract and then apply it, i start getting an octoganal [Stop sign] shape -rather than a smaller circle. I tried it with 10 pixels and tried it withe the anti- alias button on and then off, and that made no difference. Is this contract selection only for small modifications or is this not working right. If I go for a large pixel contract- the octagonal shape is completly obvious.
