How to Vectorize a logo

[Benjamin]

Hello everyone,
A few months ago about that I had to make a logo to put on t-shirts, the "clients" were very happy in my work, then just ring me 2 days ago so I converted the logo and all the sponsors logos in vector> <I have never done that and I do not know if it's a big job or not?
I worked on photoshop cs3 but I went to cs2 as I have formatted.

My question: could someone tell me how to turn logos vectors (vector shapes). I found some link to some guides but the logo that I created is more complicated = /
Please help me
Thank you in advance

Illustrator can vectorize bitmaps I think, if there's some good freeware / shareware, (but not certainty) use CorelDraw.

Illustrator? I can finally reinstall the cs3 but so it is sufficient to press the button to convert vector or must trace all the contours etc?

Dynamic vectorization Illustrator, there's way out by making black and white, clear contours and strong contrasting colors. But it is not for glory. As said above the simplest way is to import your bitmap in Illustrator and do it again, it is with what you have the most accurate.

vector is the type of output you get from Illustrator.

Photoshop = pixel
Illustrator = vector

HOWEVER, you don't need to recreate it as it has been done already for you .... why make life harder than it has to be

there's different ways to do that, one is to simply redraw the logo in illustrator or fireworks with the pen tool and cross your fingers that it doesn't take too long. Another option is something like Corel Trace, which will try to convert anything into vectors, but the results can be iffy sometimes. Flash has the same tool built in but it can be even less accurate.
