In case anyone on this list didn't see it, I thought this was a great endorsement posted to the Inkscape Users list.

-------- Original Message -------- Subject: [Inkscape-user] Elegant work - thank you Date: Fri, 3 Sep 2010 09:21:15 -0700 From: Carl Symons <carlsymons@...400...> Reply-To: Inkscape User Community inkscape-user@lists.sourceforge.net To: inkscape-user@lists.sourceforge.net

Yesterday, I led an orientation for a small group of beginners from an Native American community in the US. They all wanted Inkscape loaded on their new computers. It is a wonder-full, wonderful application. This Native American nation's (Coastal Salish) heritage and culture is loaded with arts, in particular totem-like images where Inkscape excels. These students were already making exceptional images after just a few hours. One girl did a piece with one star, Ctrl-D-ing, tweaking and arranging the copies. She was gone into the timelessness of creativity.

From the mailing list today came my discovery of F11 and F12 toggles.

Simple, but functions I didn't know about or even realize I wanted. I am amazed at the quality and thoughtfulness of Inkscape.

So this is a note of thanks to everyone who contributes to Inkscape. You touch lives in unimaginable ways.

Carl
