Fireworks inquiry
just playing around with fireworks cs3, i'm curious if its possible in a simple way to change a bitmap file to vector...
for example, i've got a picture and i want to curve the edges...
is there a way of just converting the bitmap to vector and change the roundness to accomplish this?
or can anyone give me a quick direction/quide on how to tackle this?

Vector files are infinitely scalable, and retain the information to make the image any size you want. If you make a vector into a bitmap, it loses all ability to be resized and retain its resolution, but if you convert a bitmap into a vector, you've accomplished nothing.
If you want to make your BMP a vector file, you must recreate the image from scratch as a vector piece.
I've seen some vector wizardry - vector files that look photographic, using the blends, gradient meshes, and other effects that are available with modern vector editors such as illustrator.
