topic iconCool trick for outlines in Vector

and other outline info

I just found a neat little trick I thought was a bug at first. Ever noticed that if you make a vector drawing with smoothing on and try to make two edges line up? If you use the outlines layer effect, you get a perfect Disney-style cartoon outline!

Anyone else see that, and anyone have other tricks for getting comic-style effects?

Do you mean using the outline effect in a layer style twice? That should work fine. You can use any combination of the available effects in any order. The order matters though and sometimes you can shoot yourself in the foot. For example if you first add shadow and then outline, the result will be wrong.
