VECTORS vs. BITMAPS

Vectors use math no matter how big or small you make them they will never become fuzzy or pixelated.  A picture in vectors uses an equation, this makes them always perfect but makes them load longer. If we did everything in vectors it would take an hour to load a webpage.
Bitmaps use pixels.  Each pixel it assigned a color and value and they all make up the picture.  To make a bitmap picture bigger you increase the number or size of the pixels.  They are easier to load but can come out blurry.
