the girl looks fine, but the vector isn’t smooth at all. sorry, but it
needs to be refined just a bit. 🙂

Haha, it says kinda vector 😉 It is not really vector. Maybe I will do it in vectors, when I have found the right image …

Now that you’ve “solarized” that pic, try importing it into Flash, and use the trace bitmap function on it. Try it out with a bunch of different settings. You’ll end up with a smooth vector image of resonable file size. I find that solarizing an image like this helps a lot when it comes time to trace bitmap.

no need to solarise - just polarize…

or you can just use the cutout filter under artistic in photoshop
