I am looking for some help. I have some picures that I am trying to convert into SVG files, but the pixels aren't good enough. When I convert the images they come out looking messed up. I am trying to get svg files for Cookie Monster, Elmo, Bert & Ernie, and Big Bird. I was able to get a font off line, but I can't find any pictures that I can convert into svg files. Thanks for any help.

Look for coloring pages. They are the easiest to make into svg. When I searched for "Sesame street coloring page" I got this. http://images.google.com/images?rlz=1C1 ... e&resnum=1

Trace it, then break it apart. I learned form Susan BlueRobot's tut for this. http://susanbluerobot.blogspot.com/2008 ... inish.html except I don't make copies of the file and I don't use outline view. I pull the background away from the rest of the pieces, the combine, exclude, and color pieces as needed so that I can see the finished image. HTH
