<p>Vector vs. Raster?</p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>Just a thought: This article seems written from the perspective of a techie. Instead of categorizing incomplete lists of graphics apps according to their technical underpinnings of &#039;&#039;raster&#039;&#039; or &#039;&#039;vector,&#039;&#039; it might be more useful to mention broad categories of graphics tools and how they&#039;re used; for instance, illustration, page layout, painting, 3D, animation, CAD, motion, GIS, interactive, Web design, special effects, photo/image processing, etc. Besides, many current generation graphics apps blur the distinction between vector and raster by incorporating elements of both (or, for that matter, neither). I certainly wouldn&#039;t eliminate an explanation of the differences between raster- and vector-based apps, because it &#039;&#039;is&#039;&#039; important, but maybe it shouldn&#039;t constitute the undepinnings of the article. I hesitate, however, to make these kinds of basic changes to an article that&#039;s had so many contributors without first asking opinions. [[User:Maylett|Maylett]] 19:34, 7 August 2005 (UTC)</div>
