Hence the title of this post. I manage to make illustrations to help explaining something complicated, but art? Nice looking proper drawings? Nope... You don't have to sugar coat anything regarding my lack of such skills. :-) Indeed. Hence the title of this post. I manage to make illustrations to help explaining something complicated, but art?

It might work well to create drawings like those used at http://duarte.com/training/tools, which i admire. As well as Illustrator, Inkscape has a trace function to convert bitmaps to vectors, and Inkscape is free -- and great! Its native format is SVG, but it can export to PNG. Well worth trying!
