if you mean get the black lines e.g the black lines that goe around homers face as in the picture then just live paint them with the colour as you want,i treid it and it seemed all right,but maybe i have not understood you right

what did you live trace in which preset

try colour 6 preset
I have tried about every color preset I can think of. My original question is, if I live trace a black and white image, and then fill in the colors, how do I delete the black lines that I no longer need. For example the color that creates the shadow on the right side of his face. I need a black line to color that area in, but in the final presentation the black line is not needed.

Then I tried Live Tracing and Live Painting the entire image, color and all. The only problem being is that the black lines do not turn out as clean when Live Tracing the entire image.

Thanks for the help, as I really don't understand Illustrator.
