Hi,
I've posted a new version of my guidebook to Inkscape. It can be found at the usual place:
http://tavmjong.free.fr/INKSCAPE/
This version includes many small additions and quite a few editorial changes.
The astute will notice a new book cover. I've reached an agreement with Prentice Hall, aka Pearson, aka SourceForge Community Press for publishing the guide book. For the moment, it will remain as a PDF download.
My agreement with the publisher includes the condition that the guide remain freely available on my website. (Except for three tutorials written especially for the new PDF book.) The agreement also allows for translations of the web version.
The advantage of the new PDF book? The book has been professionally (albeit, quickly) edited. Lots of formatting problems have been corrected. And there are three new tutorials:
http://tavmjong.free.fr/INKSCAPE/MANUAL/html/NeonSign.html http://tavmjong.free.fr/INKSCAPE/MANUAL/html/BankNote.html http://tavmjong.free.fr/INKSCAPE/MANUAL/html/Bottle.html
The disadvantage is that the price will double and only a version formatted for Letter size paper will be available (it should print fine on A4 though).
The new websites hosting the PDF version are already there but one cannot yet actually download the book. That should be changed tomorrow. Until then, the previous version of the book is available at:

I would like to thank Ted Gould for getting the process started with the publisher. I would also like to thank all the people who have given me suggestions and corrections.

Very nice!

On the bottle tutorial image, I think the caption below the photo is either incorrect, or doesn't read well. I'm assuming the photo is on the right, and the inkscape image on the left, but the caption doesn't read that way to me.

Ooops, you are right. No matter how many times one proofreads, there always seems to be an obvious mistake that gets through!
Thanks for noting it.

Its wonderful! Simply great. I think that it will be the best one for the starters who wish to do animations on Inkscape. -- ഹിരണ് വേണുഗോപാലന് | Hiran Venugopalan http://hiran.movingrepublic.org | +919846951870
