Relation of X11 for Panther to Inkscape Launching?

I am VERY new to this experience and I have been reading what I can; but I am NOT a developer, but I am a macuser, and an artist; I wanted to try INKSCAPE.........and downloaded it only to get a dialogue saying I needed X11; which I downloaded, installed, checked to be sure both were installed; initially, a Dos like window came up with my admin user name in the main command line. I do not have great familiarity with terminal, etc. So I had no idea what i was supposed to do, and closed it.

I have subsequently read on X11 but none of it is particularly enlightening to me; I began reading in the forum, after doing a search on Inkscape and X11 but only located a couple entries that did not enlighten me since the reply indicated one simply had to launch Inkscape and that was it; this apparently is not true in my case; when I double click on Inkscape to open it, X11 opens, and it is X11's menu that is available to me; under Applications, I have three choices and "customize" but I am not sure what "customize" means n this case. If there is any archived material that would be of benefit for my perusal that you can direct me to, I would be most appreciative!
Thanks
Kat
