Hi volks,
Where else should I go if not here? To find out about the professionalism of
Inkscape and Gimp I have started a
research project called "OpenSource graphics software in the creative media
sector". It would make me
happy if you spend a few moments to fill in the questionnaire. You find all
you need to know at:

tanks a lot fltp
I started filling up your questionnaire but it does not seem to fit an actual pro. For example, the task you gave is unbelievably simple and I completed it in under a minute in each. while I know both Gimp and Inkscape inside and out, I suspect any graphics professional with experience in photoshop, paintshop, freehand, corel draw or illustrator would find it equally simple. You also write questions like "Imagine you would perfectly know Inkscape/Gimp" - well, I don't need to imagine it so how do I answer such a question? When you raised the question of switching to open source, you did not think of the possibility of using both open source and proprietary software - I, for one, use both. I use Inkscape for icon creation and for creating illustrations for websites, and I use Adobe Illustrator for print. I think most professionals use a large number of tools in their day to day work.
And to top if off, most of the questions are vague, too broad and too subjective. I can't answer questions like that using radio buttons.
