Hi Guys I can't seem to get rid of the flash mark in the middle of the picture. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks Rachel

check out this post and the video generated by rjd357 about the Paint program and how he used it for converting images.
You may find a way to control how the image is converted to reduce the flash.

Started with Photoshop. Grayscale image, adjust brightness and contrast. Use brush on black to color in the flash.
Then use Inkscape to auto trace the path.

That looks great. Would it be possible you to post it as a DXF for some reason my computer wont read the svg.

Here's the conversion. That original image is pretty low resolution and I could get a nice trace but it would certainly take some time!
