Bitmap/Vector graphics

Bitmap vs Vectors

A bitmap graphic is composed of many tiny parts called pixels, bitmap images are never as good as the quality of a Vector graphic. Vector graphics are created in graphics packages and consist of many different shapes and the difference in graphics between them both are quite noticeable. By enlarging a vector graphic it remains smooth, whereas bitmap images look all jagged and rough as you enlarge them. A Bitmap Graphic is where you scan an image from a magazine or take a photograph using a digital camera, this creates a Bitmap graphic. A Bitmap graphic consists of many pixels which are often many different colours however a disadvantage of a Bitmap graphic is that it tends to lose its quality. An advantage of creating bitmap images is that is very easy to create; by taking a photograph on a digital camera, creates a Bitmap graphic. A main disadvantage of a bitmap graphic is that you cannot make the image bigger without losing quality. The only main disadvantage of a vector graphic is that in order to create a good vector graphic image, you need time and talent in order for it to look good, however I feel it is worth the wait as the quality of the final image is much better. 
In conclusion I believe that vector graphics are much more effective than a bitmap graphic as it doesn't have as many disadvantages; even though vector images are harder to create i feel that the quality of a vector image is much better and has more quality to it.
