		<title>List of Vector Conversion Software - 30+ Tools to Turn Photos into Line Art and Illustrations</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I love Vector Magic, a free online vectorization tool. It is a really cool browser-based tool that can be used to turn a photograph into an illustration. It doesn't always succeed in getting that look that you might be looking for, but it does a pretty good job. I usually just use it to play around with photos to see what Vector Magic can do with it, but it also can be very useful if you want to convert a photo into an illustration. I started to wonder how many other vectorization tools and software packages there were out there and I was surprised to find out that there are a ton o them. Basically, most of these tools turn Raster / Bitmap / Photo Images into Line Art / Illustrations / Vector Art.<BR/><MAP name="bdv_RSS_Ad_080608031210"><AREA alt="Feed Ads By BidVertiser.com" shape="poly" coords="0,0,467,0,467,45,315,45,315,59,0,59" href="http://secure.bidvertiser.com/performance/bdv_rss_rd.dbm?pid=4022&amp;bid=283188&amp;PHS=080608031210&amp;click=1" target="_blank" /><AREA alt="Feed Ads By BidVertiser.com" shape="rect" coords="315,45,467,59" href="http://www.bidvertiser.com/bdv/bidvertiser/bdv_ref.dbm?Ref_PID=4022&amp;Ref_Option=main&amp;source=64000294" target="_blank" /></MAP><P><a href="http://secure.bidvertiser.com/performance/bdv_rss_rd.dbm?pid=4022&amp;bid=283188&amp;PHS=080608031210&amp;click=1" target="_blank"><IMG src="http://bdv.bidvertiser.com/BidVertiser.dbm?pid=4022&amp;bid=283188&amp;PHS=080608031210&amp;rssimage=1&amp;rSRC=2" border="0" usemap="#bdv_RSS_Ad_080608031210" /></a></P>]]></description>

		<title>Free Photoshop Shapes Downloads - Mega List of Free Custom Vector Shapes for Adobe Photoshop - Part I</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I am in love with vector shapes right now. I think they are so handy to have around when you are building a site. The way that you can stretch vectors without creating jaggy edges, makes them incredibly useful. Most of the time I just land up breaking them apart to use a curve that I like. I also love using them for as badges or buttons on web sites. I have collected a huge selection of free custom Photoshop shapes. If you download every single one of these, there are probably close to 15,000 free Adobe Photoshop shapes. There are more to come in Part II.
