thats not vector, thats that cutout filter crap that n00bs try to pass off as vector. want vector temp08.deviantart.com [/b][/quote] I hope you're being sarcastic.
a vector is a lin eas defined between points and whatever shapes it creates... vectors are 100% scaleable and may involve shading and coloring etc... they are somewhat similar in look to cellshading but can be castly diferent and if done properly are more detailed. flash is generated through vectors in many cases... I could elaborate a bit more but I assume you can get the idea.
yup so next time someone says "LOOK AT MY VECTOR SIG!", it most likely isnt, cuz if ur talented enough to make vector, ur most likely not gonna be making sigs.
I hope you're being sarcastic. [/b][/quote] No, im not, you can tell its filter work because it has those randomly generated shadows all over it.
no. that is real. seriously. cutout looks rubbish. also, vector, the definition is 2 points, a third point telling it how much to fill it in by. that makes it better than bitmap, where they do every single point, so if bitmap uses 5000 points, vector always uses less.(unless you're an idiot)

Guess you don't use cut out filter that much. [/b][/quote] Guess you don't know what your talking about either :lol:
Vectors are defined by mathematical formulas, as opposed to being defined by pixel content (what most of your regular pictures are). A 10x10 vector square occupies the same size on your computer as a 1000x1000 vector square, unlike raster images, whose filesizes depend completely on how many pixels there are and how much pixel variation there is in the picture. And vectors aren't only lines. What people here call "vector brushes" and therefore say they aren't really vectors, can and probably are still vectors. All you have to do is open up Adobe Illustrator for that, since pretty much everything in there is vector-based (and yeah, you can just add a vector "brush" on Illustrator and just stamp it on a picture, just like you would on photoshop). But, you can argue that everything you see online will never be vector, unless you see it straight off a program such as flash or any other equivalent. And that's because, even though you may have used vectors to create your picture, eventually you have to convert it to a bitmap format, since that's the only format readily viewable by everyone. Make something off vectors all you want, you'll still need to convert it to a PNG or JPEG or whatever if you want other people to look at it.
Nah, I'm just remembering the little I read in the photoshop/illustrator books I bought but never used. ^_^
