Question by mooser53: Photoshop CS4 Brush tool & Stamp tool do not reflect the correct size of the area affected.?
To see an example of this cursor problem go to this site and see the Photoshop Brush Problem photo. http://www.flickr.com/photos/84392724@N00/

The cursor is the size of a quarter but the area affected by the brush is like the size of a dime. There is a similar ratio regardless of the brush size, big or small. Also note a characteristic of this unwanted brush is that the outline is very jagged, not a smooth circle. This makes it impossible to do detailed work when one is not sure where the brush alteration will occur. I have seriously searched hours to remedy this issue……. The photo is just a stamp tool cloning a black roof to the sky to show the small area affected vs. the brush size. I use CS4, and no pen tablet.

I think you’d get better answers by posting this in the Software subcategory (under Computers & Internet), or in the Photography sub-sub-category (under Arts & Humanities > Visual Arts).
Otherwise, go to the a forum that deals with Photoshop or with photography (at the Adobe site, or just google it to find others).
HTH,
