[nat19]

Hello Everyone,

I would like to create a vector image from my jpg image is it possible? I would like to create a very good clean vector image as the link below. I have illustrator cs5.

That cupcake image is already available as vector art.

It was drawn as vector art. It was not converted to vector art.

What type of image is your JPG?

It's possible to convert bitmaps to vector with live trace feature in cs5.

The results largely depend on the image being used and experimenting with settings of live trace.
