Tune in to Pixelpusher Screencasts if you're interested in graphics design. The screencasts will show you how to best make use of free software tools such as GIMP, Inkscape or Blender. Speed up your workflows using freely available and modifiable software.Jakub Steiner is a professional graphics designer. He uses free software tools exclusively. He's designed the GNOME 2.0 desktop icon set (http://www.gnome.org). He is also the founding member of the Tango project (http://tango.freedesktop.org) defining the baseline visual standard for Linux desktop icons. He's currently responsible for the art direction of the openSUSE Linux distribution.
Basic introduction to the vector graphics editor shipped with openSUSE 11.0 This has been created as a supporting asset for openSUSE's Helping Hands Q&A. See en.opensuse.org for more info.
Based on the feedback and tips I received after posting the last screencast, I have updated the template and script to accomodate the situation where one canvas is used for multiple icon filenames in different contexts.
