You could transform a raster image into an array of squares, one for each pixel.
Or you could do something like this...

Then once you have a raster image that is vectorized somehow you can use all of InkScape's vector tools.

Thanks. I thought so already. The sphere is not the problem. Transforming the photo's is.

Hey All, I wonder: is it possible to this in Inkscape?
So basically you want to get an array of photos and map them to a sphere... AFAIK you can't to this with Inkscape. I would use GIMP for the task.

It's really too bad that Inkscape doesn't have a way to deform a raster image in a like manner as Xara's mold tool or Gimp's perspective tool. Something dynamic. Would be rather handy. Perhaps someday. :)
