I made a nice shape for a logo but it is low-quality and pixels are visible. I want to make it perfectly smooth.

I tried the following strategies that didn't work:
- enlarging the image by 10 times
- trying to manually run the airbrush over the lines on a new layer
- using the Polygonal Lasso Tool to select the shape and then fill it.

All my attempts were to no avail. See attached image to understand what I mean.

Did you create the shape with bitmap tools (i.e. brush or pencil)? If you did you could try using vector means like the freeform pen tool.

You could try increasing the image resolution to something higher.

Im not expert so just a suggestion.

Be sure that when you are drawing the shape, you have the anti-aliasing option turned on. Anti-aliasing smooths jagged edges.
