    tracing bitmap??

    I have some clip art that i am trying to get rid of all the color and keep the outline. In fireworks i got rid of all the color leaving only the black outline. I save it as a png and imported it into flash.

    In flash when i enlarge it, it distorts it. So i tried to trace bit map. However this get rid of some of the black outline.

    My question is how can i take this clipart, get rid of the color leaving the black outline. I am trying to create a vector outline of the image.

    I want to create an image that can be colored using drag and drop:

    I have supplied image

    try using the trace option in flash and play with the settings till you get what your after - you can even use the original image and trace that - then delete the coloured sections

    "tayjax" has a good suggestion, but you might endup having to outline it in Illustrator. Do you have a copy of Streamline?
