Corel has the coolest trace tool. All you do is open trace and press Aquire (this triggers the scanner). The resulting image is brought up. Its best then to convert the file to a B&W image then all you have to do is press the process button. On most simple images, like the ones my kids draw, it takes only 2 seconds. Thats it. You now have a fully vectorized version of that raster image your kids drew. I then just copy and paste it into Corel Draw and colour away. Its great and the kids love it. First, the vectorization cleans their lines up so it looks like they are great illustrators. Plus having the colours makes it look sooo good. Like Nick says, you just have to make sure the gaps are eliminated so that you get a vector clean image, otherwise the colours will bleed. Tons of fun.
