You can try GIMP and Inkscape, I've heard they're freeware. GIMP looks a lot like Photoshop and I've encountered people who vector with it, so you can download it and try if you want ^_^
Wow, Oli-chan! This is so professional!! ^_^ Thank you for writing this. You know you're the one that taught me how to vector~ You're so amazing. :D I bet you can teach a lot of people well!! This is a helpful little tutorial. Although it doesn't give all the details of vectoring exactly, it provides nice guidelines.
Yes, it's important to vector something you like...indeed. I would totally die if I chose something I hated. XD Although I tend to dislike most of what I work on! But not my Ritsuka one~ Thank you again for the wobbly fence. ♥
Your vectors are always so great...I love how you use the gradients. Yours always look so much better than mine. XD

I can't do this kind of stuff...not because I've never tried, but because I don't have a program capable of it. Eh.
