Maybe you need to update your version of Inkscape or try changing the properties of the spheres around a bit.

That's what I thought when It came out this way also... the big spheres are globs of light in the background. Also.. I just downloaded this version of Inkscape a week ago... So unless they are as bad with updates as Adobe Flash.. I should have the latest version... but if they update their software as much as Adobe does Flash.. then you are right..I probably need a new version. Ive also tried changing the color of spheres but it does nothing.. I really don't get it. You cant drag each individual sphere in Inkscape.. its the whole group of spheres that move.

Ahh! But you do! Its right here http://vector4free.com/vectors/id/510 just hit free download.. and its the AI file :) There are more vector images on that site.. but I thought this one would make the best CPO out of what I saw there.
Also an added note. Im waiting on GGG.. I sent my order in on sunday..there was an issue with the address on the card they said. It didn't match the shipping address. They let me know this tuesday, and asked me to add the shipping address to the card. Ive never been asked to do this in the almost 20 years we have had the card. I told them my situation, and asked them to get back with me before the end of the day yesterday.. they did not. They finally emailed me back this morning.. asking me.. again to call the credit card company and add the shipping address. So to put it bluntly.. my controls are still sitting at GGG headquarters. That's nice. Guess Ill be calling the damn card company today. I could have ordered off Ebay with less hassle. :timebomb:
EDIT: I think we have figured out the shipping issues, and my controls should be on the way soon. I appreciate the patience from the people over at GGG, as they were just wanting to be very secure, and protect their business. I understand this completely. While its true Ebay might have been less hassle..the products may not have been on par with that of GGG. Again.. thanks over there to you guys at GGG for being patient with me and everything. I really appreciate it.

Yeah I'm using the same version. At least I know its not just me though! Maybe Yotsuya will drop back in with what he finds in AI CS5. I guess it could turn out that its just a bad image. In which case, ill continue looking for a decent one to use. I have seen some CPO images that look neon-ish. I like those, but the panel is not suitable for the button layouts ill be using. I guess I could trace it, and modify it.. but again.. I'm new to this kind of thing. I can use Paint pretty well though.. LOL ;D. Id like to teach myself to learn image software, and probably should have before delving into my own machine. But .. I'm here now, so I have to make the best of what I can do. For the future though.. Ill make sure to plan more in advance.

It opened just fine for me in Illustrator CS5 right now. It scales and everything.

Hmm.. well.. I guess that means AI files aren't compatible with Inkscape? If they are.. there must be a setting I'm not using correctly or something. I guess ill try and get a copy of CS5. Thanks for letting me know the image was good yotsuya! :cheers:
