Raster to vector conversion

[forhire]

As some of my friends know my 79 VW Rabbit diesel has been in the shop to be painted since mid-august. It was really rusty. I'm doing a lot of the work myself so it's slow going. I'm nearing the point where color and graphics may finally become a reality. I've decide I'd like to use the VW Rabbit logo like this:

But how to scale up the image? I'm don't have Illistrator?

The simple answer... this site:

The site has a tool called MetaPixel that you simply upload your graphic and it can convert it to a number of vector formats. I chose PDF because all I needed to do is print it.

In the end I have a wonderful vector art VW Rabbit bunny logo. I used a newer version that I found on the VW site for my base image and it did take a little fiddling in gimp to get the contrast right for conversion. I'd link it but I'm sure VW would force me to remove it.

Metapixel is powered by the open source projects:
