http://mn.jgate.de/icons Re-created a few vector logos in SVG: simple, black and white. Started with a text editor, then moved to Inkscape. I'm considering switching to a JSON format that easily converts to SVG or canvas.
but, Inkscape does the "scalable" part wrong, so I had to add a viewBox property so that the images actually scale to their container.

also, browsers do not treat SVGs as regular images, so you have to treat them as a foreign object, as with Flash. Objects cannot be links, so I had to overlay a transparent link over the object.

worst of all, Webkit (Safari, Chrome) has a ridiculous 2-year-old bug that SVGs aren't transparent. Come on, seriously.

Good point. I was just thinking about using it. There are several languages available at the moment. Hopefully they'll move to more flexible system at some point.

I'm going to try to get object editor saving rigged this week and hopefully work on the interface and workflow. If you can't wait to make objects, just type in JSON syntax (it's faster anyway). The point is to have data in a simple format so that programs know how to display and process it.
There are only two data structures: lists and maps. (In JavaScript, these are called arrays and objects.) A map just a collection of labeled pieces of data.

Make a profile page, game resource, list of URLs, or anything else you want.

Paint.NET is not good enough for me. No rotation, no dynamic effects. I will try The Gimp or fall back on Photoshop (old versions are fine). I'm also trying to learn Inkscape again for vector graphics.
Got me interested google. Touche. I have yet to read all of this. But I think google made me a programing language. Based off of BASIC I guess. Looking into it. I would like to learn this. Or Python or something simple. Lots of people have said Python reals good. I don;t know. What you guys think?

BASIC is not highly regarded. Python is a much better choice.

Thats what I thought. Basics too old school
