Yea, my thoughts exactly about using the font on the website as
well.
I do rather like "Draw Freely" though, to be honest, I do far more
layout and construction of shapes than drawing. Likewise, I always
wondered about "Illustrator" as the name of Adobe's Inkscape
alternative. Illustration is the least of what goes on in Illustrator,
ihmo. Something more accurate might be "Design Free", though it
doesn't have the playful nature of "Draw". So I recommend sticking
with Draw Freely. Drawing is something everyone is familiar with, so
there's a tactile connection that transcends the technical nature of
software. It's a statement as much about the UX of Inkscape as it is
about the freedom of creation, and the freedom of Inkscape as FOSS
software.
There's more than one definition of 'draw' ;-) e.g. draw out, draw in,
draw up, draw breath, draw your guns, draw a card, draw the game.
So in Inkscape you're free to do any of those :-D
Martin,
