Kaula Posted August 11, 2006 Share Posted August 11, 2006 I'm having alot of trouble with this, for something that probably has a simple solution. What I'm trying to do is make it so that this image: http://www.kaulaiscool.com/random/image1.jpg Is cropped into this shape: http://www.kaulaiscool.com/random/image1.gif Which I thought I could do with firworks mx, doing a punch through. this works when i have two vector graphics, but not when i have an image and a vector graphic. Does anyone know either a way to convert an image into a vector graphic or to crop that image into the shape i want? I have fireworks mx 2004 and access to adobe cs2 thanks!

TCH-Andy Posted August 11, 2006 Share Posted August 11, 2006 I'm not sure how to convert an image to a vector graphic, but if you create a rectangle the right size (115px x 109px) with "Rectangle roundness" of "55" in fireworks mx 2004 - then you should have what you need.

Kaula Posted August 11, 2006 Author Share Posted August 11, 2006 How does this look for you? http://homesite.directhealthnutrition.com/image1_edited.jpg Yes! Thats what I'm looking for but I dont know how to do it, I have many pictures I need to make like that. Can you tell me how you did it or what it's called when you do that so I can google it?

knate5000 Posted August 12, 2006 Share Posted August 12, 2006 (edited) Well, I probably did it the long way but here it is: I use Photoshop I resize the image to the size of the vector image. In the vector I used the magic wand to select the shape, Then I dragged and dropped the selection onto the image. Next I did SELECT INVERSE, Then I just hit delete (make sure your background color is white). That's the way I did it. Let me know if you need further clarifacation. P.S. How many do you have? If it's not too many and you can't do it let me know Edited August 12, 2006 by knate5000 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
