Is it possible to convert a lowrez jpeg graphic to svg with inkscape? Walt

Sort of.

What you need to do is, open Inkscape and import the jpeg image (file>import). Then, making sure you have the image selected, do Path>Trace Bitmap. Click the 'Colors' option and press OK. It might take a long time depending on how fast your computer is and how large the image is. Then delete the origional image you imported - it will be underneath the newly vectorised image.

What you'll have there is Inkscapes (usually pretty good) attempt at converting each colour section of the image into a vector. Try it out! Change the settings and see what happens

You also might like to try Vector Magic, an online bitmap to vector convertor. It can save the converted image as SVG for use in Inkscape. I find with many images Vector Magic does a better job than Inkscape and even commercial products.
