Chalkboard backgrounds - Can they be created in inkscape?

Postby Snooze » Sat Feb 01, 2014 5:34 am

Hello! Well I'm a newbie & yes this is my first post.
Firstly I just want to say I'm totally in love with inkscape....weird

Anyway what I want to know is can I create a chalkboard style background using inkscape?
And if so how would I do it?

Ta!

Hi!

The sky is the limit. Can you make is a bit clearer?
Are you after an interior set with a standing blackboard, or are you after the texture of the board, or
do you want to draw an image as it was drawn with chalk on a board?

All is possible with inkscape but possibly it can be done much easier with other programs like gimp or blender.

This is not a (typical) work for a vector drawing tool.
But using filters you'd probably come somewhere close
