Remember, the less numbers of anchor points you have, the more smooth the Path will look, BUT, don't sacrifice the accuracy of the path to save anchors, that is the whole point of using the pen tool in the first place! Anther trick I use all the time is to place the anchors on the curve and loosely lay down the vector handles. This is fine, it just takes a little more work. Some times you can't always do this, and so you have to place an anchor in a location that can not be constrained at a 90 or 45 degree angle. This way I can hold while adjusting the handle without effecting the previous vector. I like to find a point in the picture where the arc I am following is bisected vertically or horizontally by the computer's pixel rows and place an anchor there. After you get the anchor set and a partial vector going, you can hold the adjust the vector by selecting the handles on each point. You will 'Click and Drag' to set the anchor then adjust the vector from each anchor.

You manipulate the path by laying down anchor points and adjusting the 'Handles'.

Photoshop CS2 is NOT (and has never been) free. And yes, it's cheaper than getting PS alone (long story, don't ask). The cheapest way to get Photoshop is with the Photography Plan, which includes Lightroom and costs about $10/month depending on where you are. NO PHOTOSHOP REQUESTS!!! in case you missed it the first time around.
