I'm guessing all those monsters are vectored images?

If I attempt to make a vectorized image...I would like to trace over a drawing I did.

Would I just select a area I would like to color in, and just fill it?

Will this rasta image turn into a vectorized image after I take away the drawing layer after I finish filling the color in?

Well it'll color the picture and it'll look like it's a picture from the web.

Vector picture are different : They're made usin' Adobe Illustrator CS3. And vector picture can be larger or smaller, without loss of quality.

The picture colored in photoshop (I guess you use this program) cannot be larger than it's current size, because there will be pixels lost during the process. You can downsize it though.

Hope you understand ^_^

wat

You can vectorize your images with any version of illustrator, it's not really a question of that. You can also make vectors in Photoshop with pentool but that's not best for logos and such that needs ability to be resized without quality-loss.

also you can color pictures without pixel-loss and it can go bigger in file size that original version. Other option is that you color it and save as .JPEG so it will be in same size or smaller, though most of the time JPEG has a massive quality-loss and recommended file type is PNG that has no quality loss cmpared to original image (if you don't edit the picture so it will lose quality like over-sharpening or blur.
