VideoScribe allows you to import your own Jpeg and PNG images. Sometimes, you may want to dictate how these images are drawn or animated within your video. This tutorial will show you how to convert them into SVG's which work well in VideoScribe using a tool called InkScape.

## What is InkScape?

[InkScape](https://inkscape.org) is a very powerful vector tool and it is even available for free. You can use it to convert your picture into an SVG and order the layers of the drawing. This means you can make you own images animate or 'draw' well in your scribe videos.
