Hi
Malte Rödl & i (Sebastian Kraft) create a little tutorial to create gradients that follow a path, also useful for some abstract stuff. You can check it here > http://needcoffee.deviantart.com/art/Gradients-To-Path-78650259
Cheers,
Sebastian

This is not to suggest a tutorial, but to suggest an improvement to this site. It would be VERY helpful if there were a list of tutorial titles from which to choose. I’m guessing I’m not the only visitor who does not care to scroll through pages and pages of tuts until they find what they’re looking for. The Category Cloud if far too broad and general to be helpful. Thanks for listening

@Brynn:
Thanks for the comment!
i have now created a text based list of all the tutorials on inkscapetuorials.wordpress.com…
it can be accessed via the top menu…
should i put it in a widget on the Right hand Side of the page? or will that be too much?

@Malte Rödl & Sebastian Kraft:
Thanks for suggesting your tutorial guys!
I have posted it now for you…

Could whoever runs this pretty cool site make a Inkscape tutorial for this??
I cant get Adobe and I like Inkscape and I saw a “Suggest a Tutorial” button and I couldnt resist.

I tried to make this in Inkscape but I am sorta newbie.

I wrote a tutorial on how to make a simple vector compass, here at : http://diwaneayyari.wordpress.com

@Sarah Morine: This blog is a list of all the third-party published inkscape tutorials that are about on the interwebs.
I suggest going to maybe the Inkscape Forum ( http://www.inkscapeforum.com/ ) and maybe requesting your idea for a tutorial there…

@ipurush:

Thanks for writing and suggesting your tutorial…
I have posted it on http://inkscapetutorials.wordpress.com now…

I know it’s french but i put a lot of image…
Feel free to put here or not.
March 3, 2008 at 2:13 pm
I dont get it? Third party published tuts? Interwebs?
…to think I am a programmer…
I will check out the forum.
So what I think your saying is we have to have a website with some tutorial on it before we post here? .:puts on downcast face if right:.
March 3, 2008 at 9:56 pm
its just that i don’t publish any original material on here, all the tuts are just links to other people’s work.
You would be better off asking on their blogs or on the inkscape forum…
My goal is just to collate a big list of all the inkscape tutorials…

Hi everyone,
Susan, I’ve made the tutorial for the Inkscape version here:
http://diwaneayyari.wordpress.com/2008/03/04/how-to-create-valentines-day-hearts-artwork-in-inkscape/
Hope everyone enjoys reading it!
March 5, 2008 at 11:53 am
Thanks!! I “love” it lol. I have a few others that are for adobe but I am sure they can be converted to inkscape. That might make my family enjoy this site more.

Hi everyone.
I am currently in the processs of moving all my tuts to blogspot.com
Susan, the new link for the Valentines day Hearts tut is here at: http://diwan-e-ayyari.blogspot.com/2008/03/how-to-create-valentines-day-hearts.html
Ry, will it be a nuisance to you if I tell you to change the link for the compass tut? (It works currently, but if it is possible to change the link, then I will also move that tut to my new address)
Thanks!

Dear friends,
I find this blog really interesting, but a big drawback is that I did not find which license is used by the tutorials.
My opinion is that it would be nice using some Creative Commons license for the whole blog and put it on a visible link in the homepage.
I have translated some tutorials into Catalan and would like to publish them into the website of Softcatala (www.softcatala.org) a non-profit NGO that translates software (mainly free software) into Catalan. I have a deep respect for the creators of these tutorials and would never publish them if I’m not allowed to do it.
Will you use such a license for your blog? Who can I ask for permission to publish some turtorials?
Best regards from Catalonia
Francesc

@Francesc Dorca:
the aim of this blog is to collate a list of tutorials from all over the web, thus i cannot give any indication of copyright, you will have to ask the author of each individual tutorial. For what it’s worth, all my personal tutorials (at http://ryanler.wordpress.com/ ) are released under cc-by-sa

I’ve just written this tutorial on making a smooth wave shape starting with a triangle. It’s much easier than drawing by hand and gives a smooth finish.

Could someone do a tutorial for drawing swirls and flourishes please? These seem to be very fashionable in crafting and advertising at the moment.
May 7, 2008 at 12:17 pm
Me again. I’ve written a few more Inkscape tutorials (http://hereshowididit.com/tag/inkscape/) including drawing an orchid and simple speech bubbles.
Please feel free to use any of them you think would be useful. Most have SVGs available for download to accompany the tutorial.
Cheers,

Hello Inkscape,
I would like to know does Inkscape has the ability to mix photos together with some music in the background? I would like to try out Inkscape, so hope to hear from you soon.
Thanks in advance.

I made a clipart of a cricket and I used the python script to build a nice video, if you liked, you can post here.
The clipart is here: http://openclipart.org/media/files/jonata/8221
