Reflection #3
From the minute the tutorial started, I fell in love. I have used Photoshop many times in my life and not only is it super expensive, it is the opposite of user friendly. The fact that it is a bitmap application makes it very difficult for anyone who is not very computer savvy. On the other hand, the fact that Inkscape is a vector graphics editor, and its open source makes it possible for the regular joe to pick it up and run. Once I downloaded the application I went straight to test driving every tool. I love how you can copy images to the clipboard, then stretch them into different shape with ease! I believe the only way I can, and will become better at using this tool is just practice. Making cool poster, or graphics is something I find very interesting, and can always find time for. I loved the idea of Photoshop in high school, but its too difficult for the average joe. I think that from now on, Inkscape IS THE ONLY WAY!!

I liked this tool a lot too it is very neat. I also commented in my blog that this is not a very easy application to use, you have to know and understand what each tool does and the definition to really be literate on it. Making our own graphics will be awesome and once we are in the need for a business card or something we can create the logo's and all of that.
