[clue] FOSS: Graphics Arts and Designs.

[ed]

I don't believe I have heard of MyPaint before, but I did do a search
for it and found a time lapse video of somebody claiming in one hour
to produce an image of a woman's head and face including hair and what
not.
It is interesting in all but it seems as though if I were to create a
series of images with MyPaint they would all be different and I
wouldn't be able to create an animation that looked halfway decent
because I am not that skilled with or without a drawing tablet.
Also, of what use are vector images? (a practical application of using
vector images)
