My mate is in Kelty near Dunfermline.

I went up to Edinburgh a couple of years back in the middle of August. I still froze my bollocks off :D

Question:

Best (and easy to learn) vector-drawing ap?

I'm using MMFlash at the moment and it's a bit tedious.

EDIT: I'm not using it for tracing like most of the vector stuff on here. It's for creating original artwork which is then scalable.
( NobbyNobody, Tue 4 Nov 2008, 19:40, archived)

can i jack your thread
anyone know of a good site for finding a generic multimedia driver??
( Rev. Jesse. listening to Meat Loaf on spotify!, Tue 4 Nov 2008, 19:41, archived)

driveragent.com
is pretty good.
( Redsushi! Whoop! Whoop! Ph.D., Tue 4 Nov 2008, 19:44, archived)

cool
thanks i'll check it out :D
( Rev. Jesse. listening to Meat Loaf on spotify!, Tue 4 Nov 2008, 19:48, archived)

you confuse me.
The driver must be for a specific hardware product so you need the manufacturer's driver and not a 'generic' one.
Are you thinking of codecs?
( Pasanonic so I compo anything with words, right?, Tue 4 Nov 2008, 19:44, archived)

You get generic drivers
for things like webcams, that make the basic features work but probably ignore any fancier proprietary features.
( Mystery_Bob, Tue 4 Nov 2008, 19:46, archived)

I understand that.
I'm just confused as to what a multimedia driver is. There must be a product?
( Pasanonic so I compo anything with words, right?, Tue 4 Nov 2008, 19:49, archived)

i'm not sure of the make of the sound card
so i was hoping i could get a "generic" driver - maybe i'm just being to optimistic! :D
( Rev. Jesse. listening to Meat Loaf on spotify!, Tue 4 Nov 2008, 19:47, archived)

Can you open up the computer
and look at the sound card? It might have the manufacturer and model printed on it.
( Mystery_Bob, Tue 4 Nov 2008, 19:49, archived)

i could
but its a neighbours computer and i dont really want to go pulling it all out (or the computer!)
( Rev. Jesse. listening to Meat Loaf on spotify!, Tue 4 Nov 2008, 19:52, archived)

ah ok, a sound card.
watch this space.

download the free lite version of this

www.sisoftware.co.uk/index.html?dir=&location=downandbuy&langx=en&a=

read the report and find the bit about the audio card and see whet it reports. It may have a link to the manufacturer if it recognises the card.

Sadly there are too many platforms ( soundmax, cmedia, soundblaster etc. ) that are not similar in operation so a 'one driver fix' is unlikely.

woo
cheers sir! :D
( Rev. Jesse. listening to Meat Loaf on spotify!, Tue 4 Nov 2008, 19:55, archived)

I would suggest Inkscape or Omnigraffle (mac only)
but I suspect we are talking about different types of vector drawing apps.. :)

inkscape
is pretty simple
(pdjpdj, Tue 4 Nov 2008, 19:42, archived)

Best
will always be illustrator.

Easiest to learn. Probably Xara. ( it practically does it for you if you let it )

Oh and CorelDraw is worth a look.

Inkscape's lovely.
/ac
Not as advanced as Illustrator (no meshes, I believe) but a much nicer price.
