That sort of depends on what kind of image it is.

Somethings are better as vectors and some are better as bitmaps.

By converting to vectors you may improve the quality by having more

defined shapes smoother gradients and in other cases you may lose

valuable or slightly valuable detail.


Some images are best composed of vectors and bitmaps.

If you post the image on the web and at what size it will be displayed

we can quickly  tell you how to best prepare it for use in Flash.
