I'm a bit confused [nothing new eh ] about the 'continuous' bit. The attached has the picture continuing on separate lines ... is that it?

this plug-in works both in photoshop and xara.

what it reminds me of is the effect you get on crt when you can see the gun refresh lines
mine was done with the alien skin xenoflex television plugin and some help with xara transparency - dosn't vectrorise very well though..

A variation of Bob's technique.
Use two lines with the cigar profile and two copies of the bitmap.
1. Use one line and one of the bitmaps.
2. Position the line along the top of the bitmap inside the bitmap's edge.
3. Select both and Arrange Shapes > Combine Shapes > Intersect Shapes.
4. Use the remaining line and bitmap.
5. Position the line along the bottom of the bitmap inside the bitmap's edge.
6. Select both and Intersect.
7. Blend between the two shapes created by intersect.
I used 90 step blend.
You can stretch and/or resize the blend.

Bill, that is a very impressive result. Lovely job.
Shame it's not vector as requested in the original post.
(I made that mistake, too)!

Bob.

had a go at vectorising Bill's - be better if higher res?
[used inkscape]
EDIT - the horizonatal/vertical page behind ignore - thats just noise - can be got rid of
