  1. Inkscape color management for dummies

    Eventually, after months working on this, mostly for lack of spare time, and very very delayed… my latest #gemlog that also opens this 2026…

    What I understood about #Inkscape and #ColorManagement:

  2. Hi guys, I know this risk to become the dumbest question ever made on the #fediverse but I must ask it not matter what…

    For all the experts and non-experts… Is it possible, or would it possible, to have a plain text image format?

    Something that can be diffable and you can track changes as for instance the #SVG format. It looks like all these control versions, like #git, aren't very suitable to handle format like #png, #jpg ,etc… They can only handle them as a binary blob and track if it has changed and re-upload or re-download fully.

    Long-story short: handle the creation of catalog with #Fossil-scm hasn't been very good regarding managing the huge amount of pictures…

  6. Just in time for the end of the year I was finally able to finalize the final piece of my project.

    Now I have a background of the pages that dinamically changes based on certain conditions.

    The code is not elegant as I would, but it works as expected and this is fundamental.

    Thus the whole code is "ready", now I can focus on the marketing stuff.

    I look forward to make this project finally taking of!

    #2025 I am coming!
