Vector Graphics....

I've been doing some stuff in flash with the 'trace bitmap' function, and I found a really good clear tutorial for working out just how easy it is to convert images you import into flash into vectorized versions. There's alot of control in the settings window, so you can get various effects. It really is great. Even if you start with a 'drawing' or other non photograph image, you can get really good results. If you haven't used this little gem before, try it.
