How to Vectorize images

Recommended Posts

OK so I am still learning Flexi8 and I am figuring things out but I am attempting to turn this image (inserted below) in to a clear vectorized image. I want it to be one single black image. If someone could please help me out with this it would be greatly appreciated. Also, after you do it, can you please walk me through the steps that I would need to take in the future? Thank you in advance for helping me out.

 I wish I could help you out, Good Luck on making a Vector image from that, The glow around the letters will make the letters fat and ugly and you'll likely lose some of the image when you use just one color.

Au contraire mon frere.. 8 minutes from my download brings back this version.

Now, I admit, it's a quick, dirty, effort but just showing it's entirely possible.

 

The text (along with the image) was quickly cleaned in Photoshop by simply

desaturating the color, adjusting the levels, and using the burn and dodge tools

to tighten the contrast to just 2 colors.

And though the text was traced in Inkscape (and left not too legible in a couple of areas)

 I would strongly suggest replacing it.

You're welcome... what graphics software (besides Flexi) are you working with?
