new to vectorizing-need to learn vector for dummies 101

[jibr 0]

I need help. I need to learn how to vectorize pictures, logos and so on and I do not know where to start. I don't want anyone doing it for me, I want some one to teach me, lead the way and show me how it is done and what I need to do to learn. I;'ve downloaded tools such as sign cut, corel draw, inkscape, flexi and so on and so on. I have some up coming orders to vector sports logos as is and I need to learn ASAP.

All help is appreciated!

Thank you,

Brenda/Jiri

Hi There

Try this and let me know if it works.

Import a black and white picture in Inkscape.

Expand picture

Go to Path / Trace Bitmap.

Change colors to two.

Hit update / OK.

X out requester.

Drag off trace of picture.

Delete original picture.

Save Trace as PS.

Thanks for the heads up I'm d/l Inkscape right now.  Looks like a cool program.

What if I import a color picture. How do I convert to Gray or Black and White? 

Thanks Again!
