Hay im new here and Im studying animation and design. i would have to say the tools are quite off putting .Most students are taught to use the adobe master collection so switching to inkscape, its hard to find the same tools they use in illustrator. blender has a good idea where you can change the input to match maya so if your new to blender you still now the basics. but from my experience,if an artist knows how to do something in other program, they aren't going to bother looking through all the tools to find out how to do it in a ubuntu program. all im asking is something like workplaces where your panels are arranged in layouts which you can load and save them and have one simpler to illustrator. or even like education about the programs
