Creative photography studios and fashion photographers often use serifs, for a sophisticated vibe. However, you can also try going with a custom font if you want to emphasize your creative side; just check that it can easily be resized without becoming blurry or illegible.
Like with typefaces, colors carry
specific connotations, as people are inclined to associate them with particular emotions and feelings. Therefore, the colors you choose should be relevant to the type of photography in which you specialize.
For instance, outdoor and landscape photographers would do well to use earth tones, like greens and browns; portrait photographers should consider a classic black and white, so that your customers have room to imagine their own personality coming out under the camera lens.
Also, the best layouts for photography logos tend to sport an icon on top of the typeface rather than placing it to the right or the left. The same goes for a logo with a tagline; try putting your business name above the tagline, and make sure the business name is sized larger so it stands out.
Automatically convert JPG, PNG, BMP, and GIF bitmap images to true SVG, EPS, and PDF vector images online by simply uploading them. Real full-color tracing, no software to install and results are ready right away!
Stand-alone desktop application to convert bitmap images to vector images offline. Supports all the Online Edition file formats, plus AI and DXF output. Works seamlessly with Illustrator, Corel, and others.
Your logo represents your brand and is used across a wide range of media: your website, business cards, flyers, banners, etc. Ensure a consistent and crisp display in all contexts by having it in vector format.
Quickly get bitmap source material into your vector compositions, opening up a range of creative possibilities. Or go old-school and draw something on paper, then scan, vectorize, and refine your creation.
Vector Magic analyzes your image and automatically detects appropriate settings to vectorize it with, and then goes ahead and traces out the underlying shapes in full color. This makes getting started a real breeze: just upload your image and presto, a result to review!
If you compare results from other tools, you will notice that Vector Magic produces vectors that are more faithful to the bitmap original. This makes them often immediately usable, and if cleanup is required there's much less of it.
With the high cost of outsourcing and the time hand-tracing takes, Vector Magic pays for itself with even a minimum of use. And since usage is unlimited, it always makes sense to try it on any image you need vectorized.
Vector images consist of shapes like circles, rectangles, lines and curves, while bitmap images, also known as raster images, consist of a grid of pixels. Vectorization or tracing is the process of taking a bitmap image and re-drawing it as a vector image.
The shapes in vector images allow computers to do things that cannot be done with bitmap images, like scale them to any size without loss of quality and using them to e.g. cut, sew, paint, and laser engrave.
These have smaller file sizes but do not store a perfect copy of the image. They are best suited to photographs and other images where perfect accuracy is not important. They are also commonly used on the web to save bandwidth.
One of the most widely-used image formats. It has excellent compression characteristics and has the nice feature that the user may specify what level of compression they desire, trading off fidelity for file size.
Adobe's EPS format (Encapsulated PostScript) is perhaps the most common vector image format. It is the standard interchange format in the print industry. It is widely supported as an export format, but due to the complexity of the full format specification, not all programs that claim to support EPS are able to import all variants of it. Adobe Illustrator and recent versions of CorelDRAW have very good support for reading and writing EPS. Ghostview can read it very well but does not have any editing capabilities. Inkscape can only export it.
The W3C standard vector image format is called SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics). Inkscape and recent versions of Adobe Illustrator and CorelDRAW have good support for reading and writing SVG. Further information on the SVG format may be found on the official SVG website.
Adobe's PDF format (Portable Document Format) is very widely used as a general purpose platform-independent document format. And while it is not exclusively used as such, it is also a very good vector image format. Adobe gives away the Acrobat PDF reader, but sells the tools required to create PDF files (third party tools that perform the same task are also for sale). Those tools work with any program that is able to print. Support for reading and editing PDF files is much more limited.
The native format of Adobe Illustrator is the AI format (Adobe Illustrator Artwork), a modified version of the older EPS format. The AI format is fairly widely supported, but is less ubiquitous than the EPS format, and most programs that read AI can also read EPS.
Drawing eXchange Format. A CAD format from Autodesk, used by CAD tools from many different vendors. Some programs have difficulty reading DXF files with splines (curves), so the Desktop Edition supports line+spline as well as line only output modes.
Photos can be vectorized to great artistic effect, and this tutorial shows you some examples. You can get a stylized piece of art that can be used e.g. as a background or component in a larger composition. You can also extract individual shapes from specific real-world objects, which can be a great addition to your asset repository.
Officially supported input file formats are: JPG, PNG, BMP, and GIF bitmap images using the sRGB color space. That said, we do our best to accept any image format your browser can read. CMYK input gets converted to sRGB.
The maximum allowed image size is 1 megapixel, regardless of aspect ratio. Images larger than the size limit will be shrunk to that size. Note that this is pixels, not bytes, and there is currently no image byte size limitation.
The purpose of this page is to let you manually correct segmentation mistakes made by Vector Magic. The segmentation is the crude partitioning of the image into pieces that are then smoothed to produce the final vector art.
Sometimes the finer details are not recovered automatically and you get a pinching effect in the result. The Finder can help point out some of these tricky areas - you need to edit the pixels so that the region you are interested in has a clear path.
Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) is a web-friendly vector file format. This means you can resize your SVG as needed without losing quality, which makes it great to use for logos, infographics, illustrations, and more.
Working on a design project you love? Download it to your device as a JPG or PNG file, then use the SVG converter to transform it. There are countless ways to create a compelling image in no time at all.
Get inspired and save time with expertly designed templates to get you started. Adobe Express has an ever-growing collection of portrait, landscape, square, and vertical templates to create designs that stand out on any channel, any device.
Easy to convert JPG to ICO online instantly effortlessly. No need for any installation or plugins for your JPG image conversion. Just drop your JPG image into our converter, and you can get your ICO file in seconds without losing quality.
JPG, or JPEG, is one of the most popular image formats, known for its efficient compression algorithms. It reduces file size by discarding some image information, balancing quality and storage efficiency. JPG is widely used in digital photography, web images, and printing, offering a good compromise between image quality and file size. Its universal compatibility, ease of use, and internet-friendly nature make it a staple in image storage and sharing.
ICO is a file format used for icons in Microsoft Windows. Each ICO file can contain multiple images at different sizes and color depths, ensuring icons display optimally on various screens. ICO is essential for software developers and web designers creating visually appealing and recognizable icons for applications and websites. Its ability to store multiple resolutions in a single file makes ICO a practical and versatile choice for icon imagery.

This online browser program replaces any solid color and its close color tones in a Portable Network Graphics (PNG) photo or picture with transparent pixels. To match similar color tones, enter the similarity percentage in the settings. By default, 30% similar color tones are matched but you can change it as you see fit. For example, if the color that you're removing is red, then it will also remove cherry-red, rose-red, wine-red, and similar shades of red. If you remove the color and the edges of the image still have a pixel or two of the old color, you can refine the edges and smooth them by enabling the "Smooth Edges" checkbox. This option makes the pixels on the border between transparency and opacity semi-transparent. By increasing the smoothness radius, you can remove more pixels from the edges and make PNG clearer. Also, you can interactively click on the input PNG to instantly remove any color and its tones. For example, if you click a green pixel, then all greenish pixels will be made transparent. This way, you don't have to know the name or code of the transparent color and you can make the PNG transparent by simply clicking on the color in the PNG. Additionally, we have added an option "Match Outer Pixels Only", which lets you remove only those areas that are in contact with the outer edges of the image. For example, if you have a PNG of a donut on white background, then the white color will be both inside and outside of the donut. If you select this option and try removing the white color, then only the area around the donut will disappear but the inside of the donut will remain opaque. Png-abulous!
