Mapping images to vectors?

Hi, I'm wondering if anybody has successfully mapped a photo or other bitmap to a vector object? I have seen something similar done in Coreldraw, but it won't export to a file type Anime recognizes. Any ideas?
thanks

Is this Pro you are talking about? Have you tried a "texture fill" or "image fill" effect? Another trick is to use a vector mask with an image layer.

In both cases the image can be warped by bones but NOT by point motion. Only bones.

Thanks Vern, I will try those fill effects, but I'm not sure how I would go about using a vector mask with an image layer.
