Thanks for the response Ted. The version I'm using was downloaded from the sourceforge site - its version 0.45. I really know absolutely nothing about programming or code, :) I'm an artist, on the user side of the program. I think its a great tool - I use adobe illustrator on a daily basis, so there is probably a lot of stuff I'm looking for that just isn't in there yet. I haven't tried downloading any of the other versions yet, as I didn't know how I should be installing them - like I said clueless on that part of it. But thanks again - I think all who are working on this have done an awesome job. Having a bitmap trace function is the cats meow.

OK, so now I see that the color filters work for the vector images -Ted, I did not see a raster menu, and I don't see anythingin the manual about it. Are there any color conversion effects for raster images within inkscape? Or do I need to turn my tiff image into a grayscale image before I bring it into inkscape?
This may depend on how your preview version of Inkscape was compile, and when it was built. It is a relatively recent addition, and requires ImageMagick to be installed on the machine building the package.
Though, I don't see a filter for turning something to greyscale... it should be relatively easy to add. I'll ask Chris.
