The origin of this short tutorial is my vote in the referendum for impeachment of the Romanian President, Saturday 19 May 2007. I vote NO to the impeachment and NO to the restoration of the communist mafia, also known as patrulaterul maro or the 322. How is made Beyond the political statement, here is a quick graphic lesson, a HowTo about creating the rubber stamp above with Inkscape. Using the Ellipse tool draw a circle (keep the Ctrl key pressed to obtain a circle). Done! Update: a Romanian translation is also available. How it's made: create a RPG map element with Inkscape. Preamble It's been a while since I wrote a tutorial (in fact quite a while, as "wrote" ! = "published") and that was for good reason: I was not able to come with a tutorial fitting the rest of my my tutorial site and did not want to break the tradition .
So it was a hard decision to write this piece, which comes as a conclusion to my quest to create a RPG tileset of over 50 clipart images, a decision I made mostly because I already was asked about how I made the images and expect even more questions in the future. This is not exactly a tutorial, is more a "'how it's made" (or "making of"), the steps below are an illustration of my Inkscape workflow used to create the clipart set, I won't pretend this is the best process, or even a good or simple process, is exactly that: an illustration of my own workflow. On the course of this process a simple building, a jailhouse will be drawn, starting with the black and white contours, adding a number of small details and finishing with coloring.

With this Inkscape tutorial you will learn to draw a 3D looking snowman, but ultimately you will get a grasp of creating shadows and reflections the right way.
Inkscape is a relatively young yet fast evolving generic vector graphics editor in the lines of Adobe Illustrator and Corel DRAW. The application can be run on Linux, Windows and Mac and it's freely distributable along with source code. Its main file format is SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics, a W3C standard recommended for publishing vector graphics on the Web). I'm going to show you how to use this great application to create 3D looking images and I'll use my snowman postcard as an example. For a start let's create very basic shapes and play with them. Inkscape has specific tools to create graphic elements like ellipses, rectangles, stars and polylines.
However, if you want your drawing to look more vivid, it's better to outline a shape (Ctrl+Shift+C) and bend it. Let's keep drawing. Talking of reflections... That's about it. Jessyink - Project Hosting on Google Code. JessyInk is a JavaScript that can be incorporated into an Inkscape SVG image containing several layers.

I will follow some ways to create various kinds of web buttons with Inkscape: simple, aqua, crystal, with and without shadows, of various colors and in various states. Simple buttons with a 3D look I'll start with the simplest button, which will be reused later for the other styles. Using the Rectangle Tool draw a rectangle and fill it with the desired color.
Round the corners (here I used a 16px radius): Duplicate the rectangle, fill the copy with a gradient from partly transparent black to fully transparent black. Put the copy over the original rectangle (I used two rectangles to ease the creation of derivatives with other colors later) Duplicate the rectangle once again, move it a bit to the right and down, make it black, apply a slight Gaussian Blur filter and move it at the bottom of the stack, under the rest of the elements. This is the base button: With the Text Tool put a text label on the button. Choose the font, size and color as you want.
