I’ve never had to do any illustration work, so I never tried inkscape, even though it’s been around for quite some time.
Today, I decided that I should make my flowchart in svg. It’s pretty easy to view and supposed to be supported by most browsers. Inkscape seemed the logical choice for doing svg images… even though I’ve never really used it, or any alternatives.
My first impression was: wow someone actually thought about the users. Everything in inkscape is accessible via keyboard shortcuts… well, everything I tried to use so far.
