Shapes on Inkscape

For the last couple of lessons in Mr. Kerr's year 10 computing class, we have been playing with the star and pentagon shapes on Inkscape. Inkscape is an open source software which can be used to create svgs. SVG stands for scalable vector graphics. This type of extension allows the image to be scaled without it becoming pixelated. It is a smaller type of file type.

We learnt about the hot keys on using Inkscape and some knowledge on what some icons to. Mr. Kerr also told us that we can click on the point on the shape while holding shift, the shape will change dramatically which created some of the shapes below. I used a variation of stars and pentagons.
