Or is that "trade secret?" :D Thanks Graham Ardner Hey is there any way you could tell the RGB or Hex key values of the five stripe colors and two purple background colors you used?

I cannot speak for Richard but I've been devoting much of my time toward learning other artsy things and acquiring new skills along the way. I sometimes go from one thing to the next and time just falls away before I know it. Can't help it really. I'm interested in everything. If I have time to make more screencasts then I will certainly post them. In the meantime, head over to the inkscapeforum.com and hang out with all of the other Inkscapers to get your fix. By the way, Richard and I are still here...we're just quieter. You can contact us any time. We try our best to be helpful if you have questions. Just don't ask us about women. We haven't figured them out yet. ;) @mac

To use the extension, select the path to transform first, then select the quadrilateral. Regular shapes and text must be converted to a path before transformation. This extension requires the Numpy (Numerical Python) package. http://tavmjong.free.fr/INKSCAPE/MANUAL/html/Extensions-ModifyPath.html#Extensions-Perspective In Inkscape 0.48 the effect is under:

Extensions > Modify Path > Perspective

Note that Richard is saying that you have to select the guadrilateral first and then the path to transform,
that is not the case with 0.48 though:
