If Kawaii was talking about the merge visible command, then it's very simple. Open the layer menu and look towards the bottom. Merge down and Merge visible should be there. The shortcut key is Shift+Ctrl+E

The pen tool - that is the "psuedo-vector" tool in Photoshop, right? To be honest, I wouldn't... use it. You've got one foot in the pool, and one foot out right now. Photoshop is a bitmap-based program. Trying to do vectors in it will be taxing, because it wasn't made to do that. When you're rasterizing(or whatever the word was) it, you're converting it out of a vector format and into the bitmaps that Photoshop works in - that is, you're making it actually work based on pixels. So, where before you had a perfect circle, now you've got a bunch of squares that, when you zoom out, are going to look vaguely circle-like. But, at the end of the day, those little squares will always be faking it.
I said you've got one foot in the pool and one foot out. What I'd advise doing is getting a vector-based program. Macromedia(Adobe) Freehand is the only real "hardcore" (I say this jokingly) vector-based program I've used, and it was ... it was good for what it was, that is, a vector program. Some people use Adobe Illustrator. I've never tried it, so I can't compare it with Freehand, but personally...
Personally I use Flash. Flash is my one true love. I highly recomment giving Flash a try. It has that same pen tool, and was actually .. designed to work with it, but it also has a .. basically, a brush tool that you can use, and then you can take your brush strokes and edit them using the pen tool. That is, your brush stoke, each one, is made up of all those little pentool "vectors", that you can play around with to edit the shape.
You'll probably only want to switch to the brush tool if you get a tablet though, becase you'll be able to do the whole pressure-sensitive stroke thing to draw out your lines, and then edit the points after to make everything smooth and flush. heart
Edit: And then you can export your image out of flash as a high-resolution PNG and colour it in Photoshop if you so choose.
