Hope this helps people make pony vectors using the greatest vector program! If you are confused about anything at all, feel free to ask. There are no stupid questions.

Suggestions to help me improve this tutorial are of course welcome.

FOR USERS OF PRE-CS4 VERSIONS OF ILLUSTRATOR:
This tutorial by ~Capt-Nemo goes more in-depth into the stroke-to-fill method of line adjustment. It also showcases a slightly different method for vectoring, so you might want to check it out.
