# Photoshop doesn't do vectors...they might look like them but they're not
if it's made in photoshop it's called a Vexel and can't be resized without loss to the image

if it's made in Illustrator then it's a true vector and can be resized to the size of the moon without loss to the image!

# Ah, but that's only the final image.
Paths, for example, and text are still vectors even in photoshop, you see.

# YOU DON'T GET VECTORS IN PHOTOSHOP!!

Vector paths doesn't make them fucking vector images for the last time,
photoshop makes Vexels

Vector + Pixel = Vexel.

# "Ah, but that's only the final image."
You can't make a vector graphic, but Photoshop DOES use vectors.

# you're a fucking idiot.
the only thing that's close to a vector in photoshop is the text, that's it!

NOTHING ELSE.

# As I said! It DOES use vectors.
And I did say the text, didn't I?
And paths are vectors until you stroke/fill them.

# no you said
"Paths, for example, are still vectors"

No they aren't, a vector, in this context is the spline based coloured-in result that makes a vector image. As opposed to a Raster Image

A path is a path, yes it's spline based with bezier controls, but IT IS A PATH!!!

# then that's not actually a vector is it
its a path that Photoshop at some point will colour in.

Vectors are the finished line, exportable as a vector image like an swf or svg file (not a raster one)

slightly pedantic but very true
