Can someone please explain to me the reason why using the paths tool is better than using the free select? What is the advantage there. I don't get it. |

becasue you can curve the line by clicking, holding, and moving the cursor. makes a way better selection |

plus teh paths tool is way better for custom shapes, vectoring, web design, etc. Mainly because you can curve the lines |

the paths tool can also undo your last click (or however many you want), free selection cannot |

This seems very intimidating ('specially to a novice) but I guess the only way to get over that is to do it. Thank you for these links.
