Vimeo, anyone?

[Jaws]

Somehow I got locked in a vicious circle trying to sign in on youtube. Well it beat me but in my research for a fix someone commented about using vimeo instead of youtube. So I also added my Inkscape torus screencast to vimeo here:

Wasn't sure what to choose for a sharing license. I chose: Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike

Check out vimeo just for the heck of it though. Vimeo has much better video quality than youtube and it has some really nice video content as well.

Nice tutorial Jaws, well done 
What software are you using for the video actually?
In Linux I m running recordmydesktop or camstudio on windows, not bad

For the sound?? Do you like Audacity?

[Jaws]

Thanks.

Yep, I use recordmydesktop and MEncoder for screencasts. I posted a topic, in two parts (first & fourth posts), on using both with some tips for use here:

Never felt the need to edit my screencasts or add music so I never got into Audacity.

Well! You're a good presenter jaws. I didn't hear any need to edit either. Well planned out.

I came here today just to post this image I found, because it made me reach out and touch the screen. Yes, I felt stupid while I was doing that :-)

Is it just me, or is this more 3d looking than other objects you've seen?

That video brought back some memories for me re the basic technique of offsetting objects. I have some truly ugly examples of gui's I created for a database from the 80's kicking around somewhere. I used dpaint (Deluxe Paint) back then.

Thanks gemlog. I did script it out but I did have a couple of near flubs that I was able to recover from and make it through the whole video. I won't tell everyone how many "takes" it took to get it right.

That image is an excellent example of Inkscape's prowess in using techniques for creating a 3D looking image. The cartoon style, colors, and font all come together perfectly.

Nice find!
