Graphic Lab
[edit]Hello Lolax! You left me a message on my talk page a week ago asking about the Graphic lab. I see that meanwhile you've got excellent advice from gringer. The most important thing I can add is that when you save a file in Inkscape to use in Wikipedia make sure you save it as "Plain SVG" instead of "Inkscape SVG".
Inkscape is a very powerful tool and learning it opens endless possibilities: not only you can make useful illustrations and maps for Wikipedia, but you can also use it to create beautiful works of digital art (some samples here.) So I hope you're working on it. And please don't hesitate to ask if you have any further questions. Cheers! -- Orionist ★ talk 03:52, 29 February 2012 (UTC)
