Title: "sister site" / call for tutorials!
Post by: brynn on July 26, 2015, 09:50:20 PM
Hi Friends,
It looks like we'll be having a sort of "sister site" soon.  Inkscape Cutting Design (http://www.inkscapecuttingdesign.com/portal.php) was about to close down for good.  But rather than lose all those tutorials and helpful messages, I've agreed to take over ownership of the site.

We'll be moving it over to my server on Mon/Tues (July 27/28, 2015).  There's an outside chance IC will be down briefly on those days, but I don't think so.  And then over the next week or so, we'll convert it to an SMF type of forum, since I'm not keen to learn how to manage a phpBB type of forum.

While the use of Inkscape with home/craft cutters has been declining, since manufacturers are putting better software with their machines these days, than when they first came on the market; the use of Inkscape for more industrial uses, such as CNC, laser and vinyl cutters, etc. is either unchanged, or maybe growing.

So I hope by focussing on those, we can build and grow this forum and segment of the Inkscape community, to provide more resources for people who use those kind of machines.  Of course I'll be searching for more tutorials for this way of using Inkscape, but if anyone knows about tutorials, please let me know  :D
