I was thinking of doing a screencast on the efficient use of the pen (bezier) tool and node tool when doing a tracing.
I chose a photo I took at a local fast food joint that I thought would create enough examples of node editing both sharp and curved intersections.
Well I got carried away and after doing the tracing I wanted to see how close I could come to duplicating an objects colors. This is a WIP (work in progress).
Added the svg file if anyone want to check it out.

Okay, that's REALLY good. You didn't embed the reference image in the .svg file though.

Yeah, the default should be to embed; I always forget. I'll update tomorrow, thanks for the heads up.

The svg as promised. Unfortunately it's about 6.5 MB with the embedded image and won't post on our servers.
I'll leave the link up for a while.

I downloaded that first file and all I did was just try to pick it apart to see what you were doing.  Then I couldn't put it back together.  It looked really neat.
