I've not tried Po Trace yet, but I just downloaded it.

Professionally (or at least to get stuff done quickly), I own the desktop version of Vector Magic, which does a wonderful job of posterizing and tracing bitmaps.

I confess I'd like a Gradient Mesh feature like Illustrator, but between feathering and transparency, you can do an aweful lot of complex shading without the feature (I'd still like it, though).

My Best,

Gary

P.S. I think I should change the name of this thread to "Version 10 requests", huh?
Hi Gary,

I own VectorMagic too. But isn't so good for me like Inkscape with Po-Trace. Po-Trace is much better and precziser then all other stuff incl. Illy, Corel or Serif, for monochromatic bitmaps and lines.
Better is the abyllity You can copy and paste the trace from Inkscape directly to Xara as EMF with full beziere curves.

And YES let us write a new list. If I found time I will post my wishes in a list.
