    Default AutoCad 2007 help

    Ok, I've been playing with it, got a good grip on it. Is there a way (like in sketchup) to import a picture, then trace it? The picture I want to create in AutoCad has way too many bumps and squiggles, etc (its the Monter Enrgey "M" logo) to draw freehand, so I was wondering if it was possible? thanks!

    Does it have to be in Autocad? I could probably do it in GIMP...

    Yea, CAD can be a pain for stuff like that. I took drafting in high school, and the tennis coach wanted me to design a new score rod for him that was custom to our school. It wasn't near as complex as the Monster logo, but it was tough!
    I would really like my Thermaltake prizes... Thanks everyone for my wonderful prizes!
