>> I add another tip. My daughter draws very well and loves to draw. With 10 years I will not sit or Inkscape use The Gimp, I feel that use Tuxpaint. Okay, it's for his age, and really nice stuff out. But ups! draw something new means losing the previous job. Is that fair? No. No one uses a single sheet to draw, using multiple, and nobody thinks you delete a picture but perfect for another. It makes no sense.
