Illustrator Rules!

[pasithea]

Okay, maybe this battle cry is a little pre-mature, but I dout it. It looks like Illustrator is capable of automating the whole 'convert bitmap to vectors and remove background' thing that we've been doing manually with Flash. It looks like it can do this AND export all of the illustrator files it generates to a single Flash animation. Wow.
Now I know the tool is there, I have to figure out how to use it. :) Still. Very nifty. I love Illustrator.

So it would work better on greyscale/line art?

For the most part, yes. It will work best on more high-contrast and even coloured things. This is one of those points that the best way to learn is just to fiddle with it though.

Interesting. Do you get discounts on adobe software through school? I'm curious about getting a copy to fiddle with.
