In this screencast, my first, I create a simple torus or donut shape with an offset lighting effect, and a 3D highlights in Inkscape 0.46.

It's about a 34MB AVI video and the hosting site will give you about 135KB/s so it will take a little while to download.

Hope you enjoy and get some useful information.

Excellent work, Jaws!

(Before I heard your voice, why the heck was I thinking that you were British?)

Thanks HeathenX, that's high praise coming from you.

My next planned screencast is an extension, sort of, of Richard and your - Microsodes. Stay tuned and with your permission I was planning to show folks your Microsodes page in the screencast and recommend a visit there.

Perhaps you were thinking of Dai who has a British accent and was part of the staff at the original LGU free-forum when it first started. I'm a born and bread Midwesterner from the Chicagoland area -- but I'm working on a British accent.

Cheers

Everyone who does screencasts has a Brit accent... didn't you know that?
I'm still working on my accent... I had asked my old friend Dai if I could borrow his but, he declined

Heh! I had the same wrong impression right at first over at LGU.

Great job on that tut, Jaws! Kudos!

Well thanks for asking but you don't need our permission for anything.

I'm not getting you confused with Dai. I really did think you were from England for some reason. Maybe I saw some posts some where on a British forum (besides this one) or something, I don't know. I'm a fellow Midwesterner from northern Indiana so we're not far from each other actually.

Good grief! I give up. Australian? Really? I'm all turned around now.

Anyway, Jaws, we'll be expecting more screencasts from you.
