Talk:Vector Drawing

I know this is not of much help, and perhaps I should just be bold and dig into this myself. But does it seem a bit absurd to anyone else that the instructions are specifically kept vague and completely non-instructional for the sake of not stifling creativity? Art Instruction, at least at technical level (which is all this site can really approach), should not be worried about limiting a persons creativity. It's ridiculous and I think it's lazy. Vector Drawing is a medium, you don't teach a person to paint in oils by making suggestions of things they might paint without giving any instruction. This is the same sort of stuff I've gotten a lot of in art school, and it's of no instructional use. If you're teaching a medium, you want to be step by step and teach the person how to use the tool, let them worry about their creativity after they're done learning the tool. Do we suggest to people who want to use belt sanders that they go try and sand different things with it without any instruction in it's use or utility?
 * Creativity is crucial at any kind of art, no doubt! But if you are a complete beginner it is good to have some guidelines to follow (what to paint, in this case). And there is also the last point, which says "Practice, practice, practice" :) The technical ("how to") part is missing from this page, that is true... If you know this stuff, then please share your knowledge in few sentences ;) --Gbaor 11:39, 7 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Hi Justin, thanks for your concern, besides what Gbaor said: if you are unhappy with the actual content, you can either optimize it or fork. Erkan Yilmaz uses the Chat (try) 21:10, 7 August 2008 (UTC)
 * I would like to suggest removing that phrase about being deliberately vague, it discourages people from adding helpful info. Also, telling people to go invent new things with the tools they have is not very helpful if they don't know what the tools are, even for "experts". Ex: I've programmed in Matlab for 6 years and am still finding helpful tools from the examples of others. Unfortunately, I have little to contribute here until I get good at Inkscape :P --Paul C.

Tutorial
I have found a Tutorial for Inkscape on Commons. Any chance, that we can import it here? Or the interwiki link is enough? --Gbaor 07:36, 12 August 2008 (UTC)
