  2. Royalty free vector images, vector art, graphics, clipart, illustrations and high resolution stock images. Find the vectors you want!

Often, we see images, that were originally made as vector graphics, but are only available as a PNG or JPG file. Recreating such image by hand can take a lot of time. How can we do it faster?

Converting Raster Graphics to Vectors

Vector Image File

Vectorization (or image tracing) can be done online for free. Go to Photopea.com. Press File - Open, and open your raster image. Next, press Image - Vectorize Bitmap.

Vector is for Windows and Windows Phone app developers. Use it to automatically create images for tiles, splash screens, and all other images required from your app from one scalable vector graphics (SVG) file. Simply choose an SVG file, place it on your tile with multi-touch or your mouse and export all of the images.

Here, we can see two previews: the original raster image on the left side, and the new vector image on the right side. You can zoom in and out with a mouse wheel, and move the preview by dragging it (both previews are zoomed and moved simultaneously).

When the vector result does not look perfect, you can improve it by changing settings. Set the Number of colors to tell Photopea, how many colors should the result have. You can also enable or disable Noise reduction (it is appropriate for natural photos).

Save The Result
