Isometric projection in Inkscape Isometric projection helps us to demonstrate three-dimensional objects on a plane, creating the illusion of volume.

Draw a hackergotchi (or just people heads) with Inkscape A hackergotchi is a picture of a writer used as an avatar to identify the author of a given RSS feed in blog aggregators. Traditionally them are made in GIMP (see my tutorial about drawing them with GIMP), but today we'll try something a little unusual: draw them in vector graphics using Inkscape. As a bonus, we will learn to draw those heads even if we don't know how to draw, by using a photo as reference, anyone can do this, you don't have to be an Inkscape wizard. You may want to use a tablet, but the mouse is enough - the images in this tutorial are made exclusively with the mouse, I chosed to ignore my tablet today as I want to show what is possible using the simplest tools. So we will start with a photo and will end with a drawing, like this: Prepare your workplace Set the canvas size as you desire, I used here 128x128, as this is an usual size for thumbnails. Draw the strokes Use the Calligraphic Tool (Ctrl+F6). When we want to capture small details and need accuracy, zoom in: Done!
Understanding JSON: the 3 minute lesson 'Simon' on Sun, 23 Jul 2006 18:22:02 GMT, sez: Brilliant. I had (sub-consiously) followed steps 1 to 4 exactly as you describe, except the alarm bells were 3 days ago. 'John' on Sun, 23 Jul 2006 19:35:19 GMT, sez: INI files Rule! Anyway, nice post on LEON er, JSON. 'Rumen Stankov' on Mon, 24 Jul 2006 06:29:04 GMT, sez: Ah! 'Wesley Shephard' on Mon, 24 Jul 2006 22:20:38 GMT, sez: Interesting. SQL injection, take two? 'lb' on Tue, 25 Jul 2006 00:04:01 GMT, sez: yeh it looks very 'injectable' -- maybe more prone to XSS (cross site scripting) than sql injection... i guess the main trick is html encoding all user input, so it can't be interpreted as html (or javascript). 'Dustin Diaz' on Tue, 25 Jul 2006 13:49:44 GMT, sez: JSON in and of itself is not what's OO. 'Aaron Bassett' on Tue, 25 Jul 2006 14:30:35 GMT, sez: 'lb' on Wed, 26 Jul 2006 05:07:27 GMT, sez: true -- but client side you have to be careful as well. cheers lb Hello,
