It isn't quite the same as the previous feature but it allows you to import images and automatically create planes with the correct aspect ratio. It also creates a material and maps the image to the UVs. -Jonathan Actually there is an addon included in 2.55 (and 2.54 I believe) called Import Images as Planes.

Anyone? I wish this could be updated as it doesn’t work in the more current 2.5x versions of Blender. Anyone?

The image never appears on the object unless the picture is rendered. There must be some setting that needs to be on that wasn't mentioned in the video.

Calculating the aspect ratio and applying it on the mesh could also work but definitely much more tediously. Great tip.

Save out your vector file as .eps or .svg then use the import dialog/paths....svg or .eps. This will generate the shape of the object. Then export a bitmap from your vector program (anything that keeps alpha info) and import it using the script I mentioned above. It will put the image on a plane with transparency. After that just line it up with the front of your curve object created in the first step. hope this helps. You’ll have to do it as two steps.

I was just wondering if there a way to import some vector illustrations mapped on planes that would be automatically generated with the same shape as the illustration? Thanks.
