Artist's Comments

i've been trying to do a halftone effect in inkscape for awhile now. i was reading the chapter about "tiled clones" in tavjong bah's inkscape guide one day. it showed how color can be used to create a group of stars with different sizes. i didn't think much about it at the time.

that night i had a dream about using this tech to create a halftone effect. when i awoke, i wrote my dream down (i do that a lot). i tried it out in inkscape and it works just fine.

here is what i came up with.

note: the templates can also be made in gimp using it's many gradient features and is actually easier that way.

i hope some find this useful. part two to come...

This is really cool! It works with bitmaps too, so you can instantly create a half-tone of an image

i know. i was looking around on the net for how to do this in inkscape and found nothing. then i remembered that cloning can make the clones in different sizes. i messed around with it and came up with the tut.

you can see part two of this as well as a method for gimp in my gallery. :)

thanks for looking and the comments. ;)
