Looks like a job for Blender 3d and a decent render engine like LUX.

Although the tutorial was made with version 0.46 of inkscape, take a moment to look at HeathenX's video tutorial on how to make a Case Badge ( http://screencasters.heathenx.org/tag/case-badge/ ). I think it will show you some techniques that will help you get the look you are after. Darth_Gimp

Are these available for download?

how much longer before the new version is out!?

ok I need to understand what you mean by ETC... you are using it like it has a different meaning than the one I know which is like to say "and so on" and used as part of a list. The etc I know is a short form for Et Cetera. Where ever you see ETC... you can mentally insert the words "...

Looks good! For the drop shadow issue, be sure when exporting that you are exporting the PAGE and not the selection or drawing. Give that a try and see how it works out.

The idea of an Open Source Creative Suite (OSCS) is a great idea.. I see discussion here about Inkscape, Gimp, Scribus.. but what I am not seeing is Blender. I doubt you will see Tango Icons in Blender... the interface is far too involved for that. So, how would you set up a nice suite including the...

I just grabbed the image you shared and I will look into how to do them in Inkscape. I'll be sure to share my findings.

also.. win32.exe is not an inkscape file as far as I know.. in fact I believe its a windows file.

Could someone please do a video of this?

Have you gone through and completed each of the ScreenCast episodes offered by Heathen X and Richard? If not.. start there. They are excellent, well paced and informative. Once you have completed all of the episodes you will have a firm foundation to build from. If you feel then that you still need/...

So I go and get the latest snapshot... run it.. dive for the pencil tool and Spiro... what the heck!? ITS CHANGED!!!! AHHHH!!! Watching HeathenX's screencast again... all the shape options are different and the "from clipboard" doesn't react the same as it does in the screencast.... :cry: ...

Currently I am using windows.. blech.. but I too am waiting to see 0.47! Specifically the Spiro tool.

Inkscape is an amazing tool.. I can only wonder how it will be when it hits version 1.

You can select the object with the arrow tool if you mouse around it. Would be nice to simply click the item. Does this happen in Linux as well? I might have to check.

Interesting. Is this something you do at work? Or is this a shop you go to?

Looks great! What file format did you use for the digi printer?

I'm interested, and I have done some image worm stuff in the past. I would think something more freestyle would get more interest as a first worm and more people might join in as it goes. As far as choosing a number, do they wait for their neighbor to post so they know what their one edge is to matc...

what contest?

And it sounds like you are talking about an image worm... is that so? Also.. where/who would host it?

That works pretty well! Thanks for sharing!

loosely followed your steps and made this:

HeathenX's latest screencast is great! made this with it:

What Operating System are you working under?

Oh sorry...

I'm not on the Inkscape list and not interested in joining yet another list. The OCAL one has been a nightmare... forgot my password and thus I cannot get off of that list. I get spammed daily by it.

One they request is the 3D Box tool.. so here is one...

Hello Danny Perhaps once you get established with things, you and all of your supporters could provide a one stop shop for Inkscape templates, palettes, gradients, and maybe some python scripts. Looks like you'll have your hands full with things at first but maybe once everything settles down you c...
