Summary

We spent much of this chapter understanding vector graphics—what they are, how they differ from the rasterized images, what this means in terms of their creation, and how best to use them on the Web.

Then we dove right into the basics about Inkscape, what the program is about, what it can do for you, installation, and then the details about all the menus, tools, and using the basics in the software. We even created some simple and complex objects to reacquaint ourselves with the Inkscape software and its capabilities. All of this should be a great foundation (or a review for those of you who have been using the software for a while) to start building web page designs, which we'll be starting in the next chapter with our first site design mock up!
