I have used this too convert an image such as yours to a file that I can cut when the original artwork is not available . It worked great . I just scanned an image I had on paper into a JPEG and let this site create my vectors that I was able to use in Partworks to generate the cut files . Bill

Phil, thanks for the note about Inkescape, I will be trying that one out. Its hard to beat the price.

I tried both programs.
I need to clean up the image but am at a loss.
I tried to close some lines but cannot use node editing.
How can I do this next part. I am also tring to read up on the software but unfortunately I am a "show me guy" but I am trying.
Thanks......further along than I was 2 days ago so that it a positive.
