Hi Nellie, I agree -- a brilliant idea from Gita. I used Inkscape (http://www.inkscape.org/) an open source vector graphics editor to create the file. The idea being that there will be an editable version of the file available to meet our free cultural works licensing requirements. In this way future workshop facilitators will be able to edit and distribute their own posters. The svg file can be downloaded here: http://wikieducator.org/Learning4Content/Workshops/eL4C41/Poster I just need to figure out how to embed / link source graphics imported into the source svg file. Do we have any Inlscape gurus on the list? Cheers Wayne On 21 June 2010 19:41, NELLIE DEUTSCH nellie.muller.deut...@gmail.comwrote: Thank you, Gita for the initiative. The poster is beautiful.

Do we have any Inkscape gurus on the list? Figured out how to embed imported images when saving Inkscape files -- more info here: http://tavmjong.free.fr/INKSCAPE/MANUAL/html/Extensions-Images.html So now our svg poster file on WikiEducator includes the external images imported into the graphic. Downside is that these images wont scale because they're not vectors. At least the source text will be editable for use in future L4C workshops. Here's the new version of the file: http://wikieducator.org/File:WE_Gives_Back_poster.svg Cheers Wayne Cheers Wayne On 21 June 2010 19:41, NELLIE DEUTSCH nellie.muller.deut...@gmail.comwrote: Thank you, Gita for the initiative.
