Vector Magic


Vector Magic provides vectorization software and services.

Vector Magic's flagship service is the online auto tracer available on this website. It converts bitmap (aka raster) images into vector images through an easy-to-use web interface - just upload your image and it will guide you through the process.

The difference between bitmap/raster images and vector images is that the former are described by pixels - squares of color - while the latter are described by shapes - a mathematical description of the image that can be scaled without making it blurry or "pixelated" (that blocky look that bitmap/raster images so often get when scaled up).

Vector images are used in most aspects of graphic design and are the preferred format for printing, both on paper and on clothes. The reason for this is that while a bitmap/raster image can look great on the screen, which usually has a resolution of about 72 pixels/dots per inch (DPI), it will normally have to be scaled by a factor of 8 or more when printed since modern printers routinely produce resolutions of 600 pixels/dots per inch. Vector images can handle this type of scaling without any problems while bitmap/raster images struggle with it.

Vector images are also used on the web in for example flash animations.

The conversion process as such is called tracing or vectorization and is something that has historically been done mostly by hand. An automated tool like the Vector Magic web service can make this otherwise tedious task quick and painless.

Vector Magic: Layanan online yang memberikan kemudahan dalam melakukan proses gambar menjadi vertor dalam sekejap dengan hasil yang sangat memuaskan, pasalnya kita hanya peng-upload gambar dan tunggu beberapa saat maka hasil akan langsung ditampilkan di halaman website. Dukungan format yang dapat digunakan yaitu JPEG, GIP, PNG, BMP dan TIFF, dan dapat kita download dalam format EPS, SVG, PDF dan PNG. Jika belum puas dengan gambar vektor yang dihasilkan rekan dapat mengedit sendiri gambar secara manual.

The MacBook Air



Apple just announced the .16-inch thin MacBook Air -- a laptop so thin it fits in a manila envelope. The new machine features a full-size keyboard and LED-backlit 13.3-inch display with built-in iSight, and the new larger trackpad supports multi-touch gestures.

Just like the iPhone, you'll be able to pan around, pinch to zoom, and rotate with two fingers, and move windows with a flick. Apple got the size down by using the same 1.8-inch 80GB drive that's in the iPod classic, but you'll be able to order a 64GB SSD as an option.

The Air eschews optical media, but there's a separate external you can snag for $99 and Apple's also announced a feature called Remote Disk that'll let the Air get data off the optical drive in any PC or Mac running the Remote Disk software.

Pricing starts at $1799, and the Air will be shipping in two weeks.

Ashampoo ClipFinder!


After the picture and music files, now it’s time for the videos. Online portals like YouTube, Google Video, Metacafe, iFilm, Veoh, Dailymotion, LiveVideo, Blip.tv, Yahoo Video, MySpace, Seven Load, MyVideo, VideU and ClipFish have long since become cult, they collect many funny and creative short videos. In the office and of course also in your everyday life in the meantime it is considered to be chic to call up the video portals for a short break and to start a couple of films to relax or for your own enjoyment.

The problem is that the offer of available videos has exploded so much in the past months that it is hardly possible to directly find the best contributions on an interesting topic. People who are in to the funny Star Wars parodies, the best animal films or quite seriously intended company presentations definitely need help with their orientation.

The Ashampoo ClipFinder knows the most important portals and can, analogue to a search machine, simultaneously pass on a quickly made search inquiry to all video portals. A few seconds later, the Ashampoo ClipFinder collects all hits in its program window in order to make the user curious with preview pictures.
