    Another easy way to draw a leaf:
    Draw a simple line with the linetool, increase stroke width to 80px or so, choose width profile 1 , go to path > outline stroke.
    Tada!

It's easy when you explain it like that. And you know what's so smart about that tutorial is that you have used a bunch of commands and repeated them over and over again so we could no longer forget them. By the time I was doing that baby pod, I knew what to do and how to do it! Thanks. Really thanks from the bottom of my heart!
