Hi Inkscapers,
There is a developer attempting to build a WIN32 Shell Extension to render SVG file thumbnails in winxp. If anyone has any experience, please join this discussion on the open clip art library list, or copy him and the list if you all know anything about these topics.
I think it is a very valuable addition. I thought it would be quickly possible to use inkscape to generate extensions, however, maybe not the best long term solution.

I might be tempted to have a go at that [svg shell extension]
Man, that would rock big time!!!
OK, I didn't get much (read any) time during the week to start at this, but now I've got VC++ set up and I've created a skeletal shell extension, which doesn't do anything .svg specific yet ...
Anyone have any suggestion what library/api to use to render SVG for the thumbnails, Jon suggested inkscape, but I don't think it exposes any API, correct me if I've overlooked something. I've had a look at libsrvg which looks suitable, has anyone used it on win32? Any others to consider?
Thanks.
