Is there any sort of software that can act as a CVS (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concurrent_Versions_System) BUT for images? I want to be able to collaboratively edit images made in Inkscape and other programs but save version changes, in a similar way to Subversion.
Thanks for your help!

Re: Collaborative Artwork software
You could kinda use svn or cvs and inkscape, dont know how well diffs would work with SVG tho.
Re: Collaborative Artwork software
I was hoping for an image software like Digikam, people have already asked if it could track when an image is edited in Gimp so it would recognize that and have a way to track the connections between originals and edited ones.

Re: Collaborative Artwork software
I've mentioned this on the GIMP forum as well. (http://www.gimptalk.com/forum/collabora ... 35544.html) They seem to think Subversion would work well, but still not sure. I've got it installed, but will give it a try and gauge the results.
Overall though this'd be a great feature and could get truly global art collaboration going!

Re: Collaborative Artwork software
Brilliant! Thanks for that. I think I'll still learn how to use Subversion, but Dropbox will do for now.
With that said, is anyone interested in collaborating on some art work?
