NJLLA Logo
This week in Design for the Non-Designer, we're going to step away from the basics of Inkscape. We will perform a real-world task: restoring clean lines and edges to a pixelated logo. I discuss importing, bitmap tracing, node-editing, saving, and exporting in Inkscape. Special thanks to NJLLA for allowing me to use the task as an example for everyone!

Hacking is the art of understanding something in a complete way, mastering it, for the sake of changing it to meet a need. Usually the result of hacking is innovations not introduced or intended in the original designs. Open source systems promote and benefit from hacking. Proprietary or closed systems make it harder to do that. Information, knowledge and recipes should be free, as in freedom.

My philosophy regarding the benefits of hacking
