I want to encourage everyone to start using SVGs for web design (wherever feasible),
I use Inkscape for almost all of my web-design graphics work these days, but export to png instead of using the actual SVG.
I keep Inkscape open along with my HTML editor, and export to PNG as needed. I keep one large 'working palette' file in Inkscape per project, and take advantage of Inkscape's limitless canvas to spread things out and try new ideas with copies of other graphics.
I really like this 'scratchpad' way of working, it makes things so much easier than a GIMP/Photoshop one-image-per-file way of doing things.
All of the graphics on several of my newest sites have been done entirely in Inkscape this way - blog.wirelizard.ca & www.wirelizard.ca both have big Inkscape scratchpad files.
It's not getting SVG out onto the web, granted, but Inkscape is incredibly useful even now, with SVG not well supported on the mainstream 'net.
