Description

A logo I did for a project.

If you want to play with it, take a look at the Inkscape SVG source! (behind the download link). I experienced with a technique Andy Fitzsimon showed off at this year's Libre Graphics Meeting - the text at the top of the SVG can be edited and will affect the graphics in the bottom of the SVG (yes, even the letters in on the block.) It's a really cool trick!

So you used clones! I think I saw something about it somewhere, maybe on Andy's blog?

Anyway, about using text as text inside SVG (not converted to path), I think it would be cool if it was possible from an easy GUI in Inkscape (not with hand made CSS) to specify the font and a fall-back alternate, like use the Liberation Sans font and if the user does not have it the viewer will fall-back to Arial (as both have the same metrics the layout will be preserved). Maybe I will fill a RFE to Inkscape about this, but I don't have great expectations from RFEs...
