Probably a naff question but how do I make 'call outs'(speech bubbles) using photoshop look like they are done with a felt tip pen. I can get the shapes but the outline itself always seems to want to be a pattern! I would just like to be able to vary the thickness of the outline (and maybe the colour). If you can tell me, in stages, the settings I need to make that would be great as it's driving me nuts! Many thanks, Dave

Make your speech bubble on a new layer.

In the layer palette, double click to the right of the layer name (not directly on the name itself)

Choose the 'stroke' tab, set the appropriate width and color.



Is that what you meant?

Stroke on the inside so the points are sharper.
