Thanks for all the great responses!
I am playing around with a vector game that I ultimately intend on streaming to an easylase card. My sample frames are getting better thanks to you guys! I hadn't considered the anchors, etc.. adding those definitely helped! Now I am going to write a function that calculates some guide points for lines that are over a given length. Time to dust off the old protractor...
For circles that look like the letter 'c', I am guessing that a long blank line to and from may be to blame- I have a bunch of them. I'll post a sample ilda file when I get one that scans reasonably (and I add a few colors!)
