I'm no expert...so this may not be the greatest explanation since I'm just speaking from my personal experience, but I'd say vectorizing an image gives you clarity at the expense of detail. Image looks cleaner, but you lose finer points of detail in "sanding off the edges" if you will...In some images that extra detail is just noise, so the result looks great, but other times that detail is missed. Would welcome a professional explanation if any pro photoshop wgbros are here...

When you vectorize an image, the program averages out the color & edge variations of a certain shape, essentially "simplifying" based on the pixels. The end result has less colors & clearer transitions between hues. There's not any real benefits to it though, since once you export it from your workstation it becomes a pixel image again. Unless you just like how the "vectorized" style looks.

Vector images are made from (generally) mathematical curves and gradients. Like drawing with a graphing calculator. Benefits include smaller file sizes for certain kinds of images (e.g. glyphs, logos) and perfect sharpness at any zoom level. Websites use them a lot. There's not much of a point for images with arbitrary detail, like photos, which are more convenient to represent on a pixel grid.
Vectors are generally drawn from scratch using programs like Inkscape, not a converter.

Thanks. Can you weigh in on...okay let's say we take a random pape from wp and vectorize it. Why do some vectorized versions look like you've made it high-res and others look like you've lost detail?
>>
>>8042288
Because >>8039124. Vector images support gradients, but AFAIK common vectorizers just derive a limited color palette from the image, flatten the image to those colors, then fit the borders between colored areas to curves. This doesn't hurt images that are already flat and clean, e.g. Maze of Sounds.jpg over in the music thread.

Wasn't there an interview with Edward Hopper where he admits to having forgotten to paint the door?
>>
>>8059886
That's a joke from Tumblr that started circulating as fact through the usual internet game of telephone.

>June 7th, 1942: Edward Hopper completes his best known painting, the seminal Nighthawks. When asked by a Chicago Tribute reporter about the philosophical meaning behind the diner having no clearly visible exits Hopper responded, “Shit. Fuck. I did it again. Goddamnit. Fuck. Not again. I did it again. Shit." and slammed his hat on his leg.

>Wonder why that term dropped off so hard.

Because that particular n-word is just played out, it's been so incorrectly overused to the point of ennui, both as an insult, and as a means to try and silence any opposition to the political left, for so long now that it no longer carries any real weight to it.

It's a bit like any of the '-ist' and '-ism' words that the political left in particular just love to throw around, e.g. racist, sexist, etc., fact is those morons have simply overused those words for so long now that those words no longer carry any of the weight they once may have had; indeed some folks now accept being called any of those words as a badge of honor because to them it means both that they're likely on the correct side of the political debate, and that the political left are no longer capable of reasonably defending their own position with logical adult conversation and have instead had to resort to ad hominem attacks.
