    Hi Markus, I'm guessing you mean the CS2 suite - PS = Photoshop, CS = Creative Suite
    Illustrator has an Autotracefunction, look in the help file. With it you can trace to colors or black/white - and adjust how detailed a trace you want. You might have to edit some of the curves after - and perhaps simplify some of them, but it works ok

    I had a feeling there'd be one in Illustrator - I remember asking a similar question a long time ago. I haven't even tried that program yet, so I guess I get my feet wet today. I am so tired of making map Icons by hand. LOL

    And yeah, I meant 'CS' (PS = 'Playstation' in my house)

    Thanks for the quick response

    Is there an export function, or do I have to move the file manually (as I did when I recently upgraded from PS to CS2)?
