# I'm not a veggie
But I generally only eat things I have personally have killed.

So everything from a bison to an emu to an alligator.

I hate the people that eat the thing that they buy in packets and can't live with the reality.

On another note. I misdialed a number today and got my ex's number instead. I had to sort out the number barring again just in case she called me back.

# Asparagus . That's the bitch.
I once worked at a farm that grew it.

In one day you started picking it, and I'm not joking, when you got the the other end what you started picking had regrown.

# Ok, to be constructive
first read some tutorials on how to handle the pen tool. You will get much smother images when you understand how to alter the anchor point handles to make curved corners.
Pick your colours from the original image if you use one and use the 5point average tool in the colour picker.
Faces are hard work and tonal changes in faces can benefit from a feathered edge to help with blending.
Otherwise fine first tracing effort. No worse than the first one I had a go at.

Oh and again just google for tutorials and read as many as you can. I've learned everything I know about tattyshop from net tutorials. I had no idea how to use it 2 years ago. ( not that I'm that much better now ;))

# Basically it's a form of tracing.
Trace shapes over an image, to build up an interpretation of that image. It takes a lot of time (for me anyway) but allows you to go back and fiddle with shapes, colours, transparencies as much as you want.

Im' sure certain b3tans could give you better answers, such as Mofaha or B3ta's resident Queen Vectoria, In Vino Veritas.

Personally I think the great thing about vectors is that they can be sacled up or down to any size, because they are made up of shapes rather than pixels.

EDIT: As others have pointed out, 'vector' is the medium, not the image itself. Also of course many are made from scratch, not traced over bitmap images.

If you're interested in trying some vectoring, I believe Tattyshop/PSP have in-built vector functionality, as does the GIMP (it's just a bit crap). I would recommend a dedicated vector package though, such as Illustrator, or the free Inkscape.

Personally I like Xara Xtreme.

Its not tracing. Its only tracing if youer using the pen tool to trace something. Which is just what everyone does, and calls it a vector, which is technically right, but just not an accurate representation of a vector, since vectors dont describe the picture, just the way it was created.

# I've been saying this for years.
People open tattyshop and proceed to create paths with the pen tool. Then they fil and or stroke those paths. They post the image here and call it a vector. It's never been a vector unless all the paths and shapes are saved for future scaling and altering.
Most of the images here are simply traced images of photographs using a path to define where to fill the colour and nothing more.
