^ What?...

A vector (in terms of what I think you're talking about) is an image based on a posterized raster image.

Something similar to that is a "vexel" (which is actually just a word that someone in a message board I used to post at made up... haha). A vexel is like a vector, but it's made in a raster-based program (i.e. psp) instead.

One difference between a vector and a vexel is that if you resize a vector, you'll see that it doesn't get all "pixelly," whereas a vexel does.

I think I may have sidetracked. lmao

Going on with the sidetrack-ed-ness... PSP has vector layers, and so does Illustrator, but Photoshop only has raster layers.
