CNET NetworksĪfter you upload your image to Vector Magic, you'll be asked to specify what sort of image it is: photograph, logo with blending at the color boundaries (aliased), or logo without blending at the boundaries (antialiased). A warning on the Vector Magic blog today warns users to be patient because of a recent upswing in the load on its servers, but I had no problem at all converting JPEG images of various sizes into vector images in no time at all.Īfter your image is vectorized, you can compare it with the original and edit. Vector Magic supports the uploading of JPEG, GIF, PNG, BMP, and TIFF formats, and can export its final products as EPS, SVG, or PNG files. The result is an image that can be easily resized with no blur or pixelation-an ideal format for logos or other images that need to appear both large and small. A new tool called Vector Magic-the result of Stanford University Artificial Intelligence Laboratory research project by James Diebel and Jacob Norda-seems to be a valuable addition to the arsenal of free apps available for creating and editing images online.īasically, Vector Magic takes rasterized images (composed of pixels) and converts them to vector (or scalable) images. Those of us who are artistically challenged need all the help we can get when it comes to design software.
