I have an image on which I want to round the corners, but when I do they are jagged. I would like to know how to make the rounded corners smooth.

Any suggestions?

What type of image? I guess we are talking anti aliasing here. Usually on corners if you created a block let’s say and wanted rounded corners, one could take the black and white version into a channel and gaussian blur the image and then use levels to create rounded corners but I have a feeling this isn’t what you are referring to.

Can you elaborate?

Using Gaussian blur and Levels to make rounded corners tends to leave half selected pixels on the outline, better use the Rounded Rectangle tool and then Command+click on the vector mask to load the selection
