# Nice. Shame about the JPEG artifacts though...
I wonder how big it would be as a PNG?


Also, TJ:
I'm trying to vector a friend's drawing using Inkscape, and I'm a bit stuck.
Here's what I've got so far:

I want the body to be one colour, and the shell to be another, but when I select the one line, they all become selected (except for the antennae). Is there no equivalent of 'bucket fill' in SVG?

# The png
is currently 2.5mb.. could make it smaller by flattening it I suppose..

I tend to use flash (cos I'm a web, and not a graphic, designer) for vector stuff, which if you import that into you can easily fill any section or colour any outline with whatever colours you want.

# No shame in using Flash for vectors.
I don't have it though - all I have is Inkscape, so I need to know how to do it in that.

# Hmmm
TBH I've never used Inkscape... if you could handle having it on your conscience you could get a copy of Flash via any torrent site which can definitely do that.. other than that I'm not sure sorry :(

# Heh, I used to have Flash by that very means.
I guess this is the reason why not many creative arts type people use Linux...
