that's doing
all this. She's not into newsgroups and mailing lists. :-) Note I
said as "large as PNG files can be". Initially this all came about
because she couldn't make PNG work, but it appears she was doing
something wrong somewhere, and PNG will work for her.
From my perspective, your friend's not a candidate for Inkscape,
or any
free software: Especially any Linux/BSD/POSIX software. From what I've
heard in the thread, she believes her software should give her exactly
what she wants, without her having to adapt to it. For a million
different reasons, that's not how free software works: It's kinda sorta
how commercial software works, or is supposed to work, but it's not
how free software works. Trying to evangelize Inkscape or free software
in general to a person with her belief system will be frustrating as
hell, unless her belief system changes.
