The first rule is: Understand how line drawings, screen shots, and photos are different, and don't use the same rule of thumb for all three. > Is there a web page that gives an explanation of what to use and why? Well, if terms like vector, raster, and bitmap aren't all that clear to you, you might start at Wikipedia (it ain't Brittanica, but is usually pretty useful for stuff like this). Here are some links: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vector_graphics http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raster_graphics http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Graphics_tutorials Others might have additional/better resources -- I'm so old, I learned most of what I know before I was on the Web. ;-) Richard ------ Richard G.
