Hope this helps somewhat! I use this solution all the time due to that very issue. I use LINUX myself but there is a Mac and Windows version for those interested in importing Vector Graphics into SNAP! You can then export both direct from INKSCAPE to SNAP and Vice -Versa (all the SNAP! Costumes for example) are better when working in VECTOR graphic (SVG) formats. I also have found the ‘png’ format is better suited to a lot of SNAP! Which is the second best option.

I use an external graphics editor called INKSCAPE - which will both ‘import’ and ‘export’ in the SVG format which SNAP can import very easily as a ‘Drag and drop’.

For what its worth – I would just like to add that I have noticed (some) relatively poor image scaling in SNAP as it can often go a bit ‘soft’ - so I do try to avoid any import of low quality images (particularly ‘web’ based images) and use the SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) which is already built into SNAP! Rather than try to draw them in SNAP! – which is far from ideal on the quality front.
