Have you ever had a photo that you wish you could blow up to a much larger size? Doing something like that would require a vector image, which is a graphic format that has no size limitation.

They came back online a few days later after installing a system to block all Canadian traffic.
Welcome to Daily Downloads brought to you by CyberNet! Each weekday we bring you the Windows software updates for widely used programs, and it's safe to assume that all the software we list is freeware (we'll try to note the paid-only programs).
You won't believe some of the funny, crazy, not to mention dumb laws that are found around the World. While you can find these laws nearly anywhere, today we're taking a look at the "Only in America" laws that make you go "hmm... what they thinking when they came up with this one!"
