HERES PART OF MY E-MAIL TO SOMEONE
"I use a mouse and yes, I traced the outermost shape..then the hard work begins. With it being a B&W bitmap all I'm really looking at is a series of *shades and gradients* Not Lines...
{which I have to 'punctuate' with simple black lines!] I try to "suggest" certain features, and that's the artistic interpretation bit..."
"But all credit to XARA X because it's line smoothing facility does add an incredible amount of grace to line drawing. I can't wait to try one of them graphics pads though.
If it were just the result of "tracing over a photograph" which some perceive it as, then I would not even bother with the thing in the first place..there would be no fulfillment.
cheers
