Back In Action: Creating Drupal art with Inkscape 0.46

Events happening in the community are now at Drupal community events on www.drupal.org.

Hi Guys,

Sorry for being gone for a long while. It's been pretty rough lately here in my country and I hope everything is still in good shape after all those natural calamities.

For almost a year that I've been designing art inspired by Drupal, one application is always there for me -- Inkscape.

From rectangles, gradient fills, to that kinky curve... Inkscape is the best companion I would ever have in the vector-graphics department.

And now, since version 0.46 is a just simple download away (released last May 2008) I would say that everything just got better. New cool features were added. Faster and better running performance. Look and feel thoroughly enhanced. To be honest, I still haven't figured out how to the other trivial features that are there waiting for me to try. Should I cry help? I guess I do :)

Call me crazy but I'm not going to give up Inkscape anytime soon.

Looking forward to joint-designing projects,

Marc

I love inkscape. someday I should write an inkscape-to-drupal module like this http://www.communitywiki.org/en?action=browse;oldid=InkscapeToOddmuse;id... (except in php for Drupal of course, and minus command line stuff)

Odd but Cool

That's a very cool idea. Yes it's definitely odd but it puts a spice to our favorite vector software.

I hope that module ends up pythonically brilliant! ;)

Getting more out of Inkscape & Drupal

This is an old theme, but figured I'd tag onto it.

Inkscape continues to mature as does Drupal.

Inkscape can easily put changes into a repository as was doen for http://dc2009.drupalcon.org

The original designs for all core themes, like Seven, need to be stored in the central repository so that everyone an access them & so that they continue to evolve with the community.

It's simple, cross browser compliant, flexible & fits in so nicely with our existing infrastructure for distributing code.

Thanks for sharing. We hope

Thanks for sharing.

We hope that more developers discover the beauty of using Inkscape for their projects, not just as a vector-graphcis software but as a good wireframing tool.
