About vectorpic.com

vectorpic.com was developed in 2014 with the intent of creating an easily searchable index/catalogue of free to use vector graphics.

We aim to make the vectors we index as easy to search as possible, we’re still working on that though. If you have a suggestion then please let us know and we’ll try our hardest to do it.

What are Vector Graphics?

“Vector Graphics describe images using lines and curves, called vectors, that also include color and position properties. Each vector uses mathematical calculations, instead of bits, to describe the shape, which allows them be scaled without degrading in quality.” – Adobe
