Vector vs Raster
The word Vector comes from
Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG). Most images you have seen
are 'raster' graphics. There is a huge difference between vector
and raster images. Raster is defined by a grid of pixels, each pixel
is a different color to make an entire image. This is a great type
of image format for photographs, but most graphics for the Web are
flat colored.
Vector graphics, on the other hand, are not defined by pixels and
are not constricted to a grid format. Vector graphics are given
instructions by the computer about how the objects should be shaped
and their relative size.
Still confused? Check out the example below:

The image above is dramatization of how vector and raster graphics differ. The green dot on the left is supposed to be a vector graphic, while the image on the right is an exaggeration of a raster graphic. The vector dot would be created by a series of instructions that tell the computer that a perfect green circle with a specific size relative to the viewing area, will be displayed. The raster green dot, on the other hand, is defined by a series of pixels arranged in columns and rows with a specific color, nothing else! The computer has no idea that the raster dot is actually a dot, it only knows pixels and colors.
So what's the big deal?
The whole great thing is that since it takes less instructions for the computer to define a vector graphic than a raster graphic, vector graphics are generally smaller in file size. Some vector formats (such as Flash) also have the ability to imbed a raster file within themselves, so you can get the best of both worlds!
