(Description deleted because of DAv2 to DAv3 compatability. This is the original guide for photoshop vectors and all original content is provided in version two. I suggest you head there. Thanks.)
i havn't looked at it yet.
but i found out today that the so called "vectors" i've been doing
aren't really vectors at all...but "rasters"
can you believe it? i mean.. good one.
i mean real cool, it's like i've been living a lie.
if i cared more... and really cared what people though...
but yeah so maybe this can help me.

fun fact: the clothes you wear determine your worth as a human being.
Too bad that it's not a vector guide at all though, it's a "how to fake vectors by actually creating raster images that LOOK like vector images but are not" guide.
With vectors you can zoom in and out how much you want without quality loss. With raster images, like those ones in the tutorial, you get pixels when you zoom in and a blurry mess when you resize it to a bigger resolution, thus it's not vectors at all, but more like a "clever" way to fake them (and a good way to piss off purists, read: me )
Seriously though, if you're serious about making vectors, Photoshop is NOT the program to use, you need a proper vector program, like Illustrator or Freehand to mention two. Raster programs, like Photoshop, are made to do raster images, and vector programs are made to do vector images. I mean, you wouldn't try to paint an oil painting with water colors, would you?

Nice tutorial, although, I'd add more shades to it... But it's still a nice tutorial
Also, since people are complaining about "fake" vectors, they're now called vexels...
