Thanks for this Ryan. I know I will find it useful.

That's a great compilation of tutorials. I look forward to seeing the site grow.

There are a lot of repeats in the list. Was this intentional?

[ryanlerch]

im not sure what you mean by repeats...

if you are using the categories on the RHS of the page, you may get this effect as a single post can be in 1..many categories, but the posts are only there once...

Theres a few on my blog at simarilius.wordpress.com feel free to link those.
Theres also a really ugly how to on making markers in the sharetutorials folder,
it may need updating though as it was written midway through getting the marker stuff working.
There used to be a shiny marbles one i wrote on the wiki too, seems to have got lost at some point when the servers changed, will see if i can find it when i get home from this trip.

yeah, i found that, a making markers tutorial was actually on my to-do list...

I had a go at doing a screencast version, just because it would probably make more sense, but there was something to do with the screen grab software that meant that dragging nodes around in the XML editor wouldnt work, which meant I couldnt create the markers
I'd always planned a convert to marker type menu item ala convert to pattern, so had put off updating/making pretty that quick and dirty one. guess I need to pull my thumb out and do one or the other

ill add those tutorials for sure sim. especially the irregular gradients one - that is a great tip that i have been using for a while myself

im building up a lot of drafts in my wordpress.com blog account, and ill slowly publish them all (2-3 tutorials a day i think until i get most of the pre-existing tutorials on the web)

i dont wanna swamp the inkscape planet planet

also, on the topic of markers, it would be cool to be able to just "import" a marker def from any file into the defaults or just into the current document (when you get the marker editor working...)

also, is it possible to get gradients to work in markers? i tried but failed...

Seems to work in SVN without any trouble.

Dont waste time on doing a screencast about making markers, was going to do one myself but the hack I was explaining was so horrible that I've just coded the convert selection to marker menu item instead
