Inkscape is an Open Source vector graphics editor, with capabilities similar to Illustrator, CorelDraw, or Xara X, using the W3C standard Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) file format.

For this site I wanted to create a nice little badge to advertise the fact that we offer free quotes. I thought of all the software that I could use including Corel, but I was feeling adventurous and decided to try to do it in Inkscape, and I must say I am pretty impressed with how well Inkscape works from a graphic illustrator's point of view. In many ways Inkscape seems ideal for web graphics considering it uses a version of SVG to store the file. Granted the SVG might not work 100% with standard SVG used in browsers, it is still impressive as its an open format.

Anyhow, I thought I would share the results of my work, these are in Inkscape SVG format. It was created with Inkscape .46 in Linux in case you are wondering.
