Default Design people - Creating Vector images.....
How easy is it to create a Vector image from a photo? I want to make a basic line drawing using a photo as a guide? Does that make sense? I need it to be infinitely resizeable too, as per a normal Vector.

I have Photoshop and ImageReady, can these programs do it?

You can't make vectors using Photoshop or Imageready, you need to use Illustrator.

It's easy enough to do from a photo, using live paint/trace in Illustrator as it does everything for you.
