This is probably Off-OT :)

I converted a PNG image to SVG using Vector Magic (just for the heck of it).

To put things in proper perspective:

1. Assuming DJ-"I'm not a graphics guy by any means"'s graphics
expertise is 100%
my expertise would be around 3%.

2. If Andy-"any svg generated by an automated tool is as ugly"'s sense
of beauty is 100%
mine would hover around 10%.

With those proportions in mind I find the SVG resulted image after my quick,
_uneducated_ test, pretty good.

I used GIMP to send them a PNG snapshot and after about five minutes
I could download their automated, demo SVG rendition for comparison.

If anybody would like to pursue this fascinating topic:

I don't know how (of if possible) to upload to BLFS support:

the PNG file: ~ 265K and
the SVG file: ~ 677K,

for your eyes (only).

Cheers,
Alex

PS  Warning:  Vector Magic is kinda un-Linux-like:  it charges money.
