Inkscape .46 released

I think I’m a little bit too late.  It’s already 4 days that it’s out but I was too busy testing Fedora 9 beta and I for a side note, I should say, it’s stable.  Anyway, getting back to the inkscape, .46 version has a lot of new features which make life even easier for newbies like me!  one of the new features I like is ‘markers’  you set an object as a marker, set a path and tell the path to put one of those markers you created in each of its segments.  This tutorial shows you how it works.  ( it would make a good background wallpaper by the way )

The packages for Ubuntu and Fedora 9 are ready, but I’m not sure about others, ( e.g. windows, *BSD, OS X, other distributions of linux ).  You can go to inkscape.org and download them now, or just refer to your local packages! :)  simple and easy as always (TM)

-footnote:  ’simple and easy as always (TM)’ is a trademark of linux community :)  ( just kidding )

first drawing!

ok, here it is:  my first drawing with inkscape, on my own ( no tutorials ;) )

my first vector drawing

if you want a tutorial on how I made it, leave comments :)  I’ll write that if you want.

But if you get the concepts of nicubunu’s tutorial ( refer to last entry ), you’ll be fine with this one too!

a baby step into vector graphics

ok, a few days ago I tried inkscape. A vector drawing program. It’s really powerful, and much easier to use than CorelDraw! Anyway, I followed this tutorial ( click on “this” to get this specific tutorial and click on “tutorial” to get the latest list of his tutorials ;) ) Following this tutorial was easy and well, taught me many things about inkscape. Follow it, you’ll enjoy it very much, just like I did.
