Re: tracing aid program for Inkscape
Tom - that is an interesting find. I tried it out with an image I found online. I did a screen shot of their result and removed the water marks with Paint.net. Then imported to Inkscape for autotrace. I can see where this may be useful under some circumstances for some folks, but the auto trace result will still need lots of editing to create a cut ready file - plus at least for this example - I don't really think the result looks exactly like the dog in the original photo. But thanks for sharing your find with us.
Also - I didn't watch the video, just looked below the video to get the link to the site. Perhaps If I watched the video I might have a better result.

David the video show about the same results you showed, I thought it may be useful to those who are doing cars or trucks looking for a trace, or maybe a person's face. Things some were doing with manual tracing.

Re: tracing aid program for Inkscape
The program certainly gives us a good START! Of course, they charge for the files the site creates, so I will look into purchasing a package from them, once I get the plasma table back online. Right now NOTHING in my shop is working
I have to move things around, and get the major machines hooked up so I can begin to take over the WORLD!
