Creating a vector from image

Hi

I want to create a vector from this image: http://www.4shared.com/file/6701515/823b5ae5/applepasc.html

I have traced it using the pen tool and created a selection but the shape as drawn is not really perfect.

How can I create the inner broken circle which curls in so it is mathematically perfect but very close to the original in vector form?

Cheers
Gaz

Use the elliptical marquee tool to draw a circle around it and then create a path or fill it with whatever color you want...

I would recommend recreating the whole thing in Illustrator if you have it?
If you have flash you can just go a image>trace bitmap and voila:  vector!  ;)
