Well what the problem is is that I made a logo/banner mascot design for a contest but didn't realize it had to be done in vector format. I did the entire image in Photoshop CS3 and it's all in color. Over the net I found a place that would convert my image to a vector format in just a few minutes, but it costs money after the second try. I looked for an alternative, and was directed to Inkscape. Unfortunantly, I haven't been able to figure out how to vectorize a colored image, I've only found tutorials on how to vectorize grayscale/black and white images.
Do you think you could help me figure out what I need to do? I would greatly appreciate it.
You'll have to do it manually. Either trace in black and white then fill in the appropriate colors, or use the Bezier tool to re-trace the lines and fill in the appropriate colours. Probably option 2 as it gives cleaner results.
Sorry for bothering you
Try for yourself but you'll get cleaner output by redoing the lineart manually with the Bezier tool. Apart from that, I've never bothered using the bitmap tracing tool, so you figure it out yourself.
