Why I Love Inkscape Drawing Program

Inkscape, the free vector drawing program for Linux, Macintosh, and Windows, is incredible in what it can do. This musical slideshow is a collection of some of the best graphics I could find created with Inkscape.

This presentation was created using the slideshow feature of iPhoto, exporting the slideshow to QuickTime at 720 x 480 pixels. The opening and closing titles were added using iMovie.

Inkscape runs on all major computer platforms -- Linux, Macintosh, and Windows.
(You'll need to install X11, some free software that comes with the CD on new Macs, to run Inkscape on Mac OS 10.4 computers.)

Note - you can see a Picasa Webalbum slideshow of these same graphics (in larger size) at http://tinyurl.com/3ex3ac

To learn more about Inkscape, search YouTube for some excellent Inkscape screencasts.

My favorite Inkscape screencast here on YouTube is the Photo Popping one.

So..... why do you like this program.... O.o

[pshapiro]

@ToonTownRandoOmNes thanks for asking. inkscape brings enjoyment of computer graphics to many people who would otherwise not be able to afford to buy a vector drawing program. and you can use the vector drawings from inkscape for many different purposes - print, web graphics, video, engineering diagrams, etc.
