I surf at work, watch Youtube and stay in touch with friends on Facebook with Skydur.com. I can even select a country I want to appear from (USA, United Kingdom,…) So simple to use and yet powerful. It bypass China Firewall. It’s my best spent $16 bucks (for 3 months of service) – no more time wasting with free proxy solutions. Skydur rocks.

Hello Scott,

Did you think updating your tutorials to the latest version of Gimp? And detailing a bit some parts?

For example I have no idea how to do this: “With the previous rectangular selection still selected, I pressed Ctrl+, to fill the selection with black. Next, I pressed Ctrl+Shift+A to deselect all. Now blur the layer to taste. With my image size, 5px radius was sufficient.”

Thanks.

I just opened and used Cisco EPS icons with inkscape without pstoedit installed. I’m using inkscape .46-devel if that means anything. It claims (and treats it?) like a PDF, but I was surprised how well it worked. Just FYI.

If yao cannot open an eps in inkscape, there is certainly no use to try it with pstoedit as inkscape itself uses that handy oneliner to get a file…

if you cannot open an epsfile in inkscape the main reason is that the eps is crap.

The workaround with pdf does it’s job, but it certainly produces a whole new dimension of data.

the gimp-workaround is suitable for all kinds of layered pictures (no gradients envolved)….

anyways, thanks for all the useful information :)

Yes, this is probably the best way, since they have improved support for EPS, among other things in Inkscape 0.47 (svn build)

What you can also do:
1. Open .eps in Inkscape.
2. Save as .svg.

This appears to preserve the vector information on the files I’ve tried.
