Re: importing
are you saving as 'Inkscape .svg's'?(there are other options...so just wondering)
are you using the SVG tap at the top of SCAL2 to open the file as oppose to using import...which I am not sure if it makes a difference, but worth a try.
Does SCAL say something about the file...like 'will not accept this file type' or
'there is no vector image' ?
What is happening exactly?

Re: importing
You need to convert the raster image to a vector. Firstcut has a tutorial guide on her blog for different types of images. http://cleversomeday.wordpress.com/images-to-svg/
