Title: Enclosure Design Software
Post by: wolfingsworth on May 20, 2012, 03:49:55 AM
 I have seen some very impressive graphics done by some DIY'ers who seem to also be graphic designers. What is a user friendly/cheap software program (I use a Mac) that I can get started with? I am very interested to know how some of these guys get their pedals to look so legit! Replies are much appreciated!

Inkscape is free and you can do some great things with it.

After you download the software check out the link above to get you started. It's not easy at first but you'll get the hang of it. Hope this helps!

Inkscape can be temperamental but it's the best free vector program available.  It's well worth learning its quirks!
