Hey, I find this really interesting, since I sometimes make patterns using SVGs and such.
One question I do have, is how is this different from something like Adobe Illustrator's Image Trace?

@xgrv I was asking myself the same. Maybe try putting them side to side with the same image.

@xgrv I was using AI's tracer before making this actually. Results I would say slightly better and faster on that app. But I'm betting on usability of a drag/drop online tool (also free) would add value.

You’re a hero @burak_tokak!! @xgrv, not everyone is a Creative Suite subscriber ;)

works cool 👍
do you have an API for?
Will be greate to use it on mac as Quick Action via Automator.
I wrote action for "Сompressing" (via tinypng.com) and will be cool to add "Vectorization" action ))

@alick No API yet, but I made the code open source, and would run on a lambda (https://github.com/btk/vectorizer) I might think about making a commercial API in the future tho :)

Hey everyone!
Some tech details for geeks among us :)
Vectormaker uses the Potrace algorithm to convert images into vector graphics. This algorithm is able to trace the edges of an image and create a corresponding vector path. Vectormaker then colors the vector path based on the colors in the original image and the color scheme of the original image chosen in the second step.
Also Its open-source, feel free to let me know your ideas on improving it.
Hope you enjoy and make this tool a part of your workflow. 👩💻🤞

@burak_tokak this is awesome! I quit using Adobe for more than 5 years now and went full Affinity Suite. I bought Super Vectorizer to fill the Image Tracer gab Affinity didn’t have. Now that Super Vectorizer is kind of abandoned I’m glad about this product!! Thanks!
Very cool tool, @burak_tokak! I often find myself needing to do this, and default to going into Canva to paste an image in and downloading it as an SVG… an annoying process!
Will plan to use Vectormaker moving forward 🤝💯

@hugh_lagrotteria It's my first time hearing about Canva's vector thing, will check it out and compare to mine, thank you for the tip :)
I'm really impressed with Vectormaker! It's a great tool for converting images to SVG vectors. The results are fantastic and the user interface is very intuitive. Congrats on the launch of this great product!
