Vector art is fun!

Vectors are fun and even somewhat easy once you get the idea. I just made this!

... and, make vector art!

It's quite neat. Without them vectors, there's no way I'd ever make any half-decent looking art with comps, I believe :|

What software you using for vectoring about, Greasel?

I don't know no nothin' 'bout that..

I use Inkskape. I'm quite confident that there are better ones around, but Inkscape's free and usually does what I want it to do.

Ah, well, I use Flash. But that's partly because it can animate things and mostly because now that I've gotten used to it, it sems I can't really get into working with something that doesn't behave excactly like it [img]tongue.gif[/img]

So, here's a bunnyrabbit.

I'm so proud...

I'm too poor to buy any Adobe Versatile Consumer Solutions For Innovatively Manufacturing Interactive Online Experiences, and too honest to steal them.

Which is a pity, since the coloring cababilities of Inkscape are not too magnificent.

And here's a chainsaw murderer.

I have some problems with the filetype. Is there anyway that you can change the filetype to .jpg with the program?

Iron Greasel · 08-09-2006, 10:13 AM

You can export jpg by simply changing the file extension in the Export Bitmap dialog.

What kind of problems?
