Thank you. This was extremely helpful, and I was actually able to finally create my first cnc project with MY picture. Looking forward to more.

Or the other way is to simply import image into Inkscape and do a trace bitmap. :) I would do directly with no need for all the hassle with Powerpoint and GIMP. Good tutorial anyway.
