). I've been using my custom Inkscape version in my most recent vectors, and am proud to announce that I feel it is ready to be released to the masses! For anyone running Windows, you can download the entire package, unzip it using 7zip or winrar, and run inkscape.exe. If you want to compile from source or are not on Windows, download the Inkscape source from their website (http://www.inkscape.org) and apply the source patch (if you need help with this, feel free to send me a note).
Looking for a screenshot to trace? Looking for a reference of a specific pose or pony? Having trouble finding screenshots of a pony doing something specific? Well, look no further!
I present to you Pony Resource Booru!
As you can see, there's some stuff here already, but we need you to help us! Upload all of your interesting screenshots so all of us artists can have a large comprehensive database of screenshots for references!
Those of you familiar with image Boorus should already know how this works. For those of you who aren't, I'll give you a little explanation.
Anyone can add images to the pool, and they add various tags to help make it easier to find for other users. Anyone can then search by tag (or multiple tags) to find what they are looking for. You can also add and remove tags from any posts, even ones you did not submit, which means the community controls how useful the content is.
You can add things without signing up, as well as edit the tags on posts that were made within the last hour. However, you have to sign up as a member (which is free and easy) if you want to be able to, tag older posts, add images to your favorites, or add notes.
See this post for a list of general guidelines. What kind of tags should you add?Add lots of tags! The more the merrier! Never be afraid to add or correct others' tags, too!
I hope I'm not the only person who needs a ton of background references.
We should remember though that it's hard to get clear shots of backgrounds with no visible characters without any editing.
