Vector graphics
The restored version of that paragraph reads much better than the previous version. Thanks for taking the time to improve the style.

However, there is a problem in that it still does not address the main issue that led me to remove it before, which is that it makes numerous claims that are difficult to verify. Since I'm not an expert on vision, I have no way of knowing whether it is true that the visual cortex converts what comes in through the eye into a form comparable to vector graphics, nor can I know whether it's true that the reason geometric shapes are more memorable, and children like cartoons, is that simpler shapes are easier on the brain.

That's why we really do need to cite some reliable sources, like textbooks or published studies, that also make these claims, to prove that we aren't just making things up here!

I shan't remove the paragraph again immediately (though I have moved it out of the article introduction and into a section of its own), but I have tagged it as needing citations again. If you happen to know of any sources, it would be really helpful if you could add them to the article. &mdash; Haeleth Talk 13:11, 19 August 2006 (UTC)
