The short answer is... 96dpi

Greg, the trick is to work at 96dpi for everything. I’m pretty sure that’s the default. Of course, its also helpful to always work in pixels.

If I know I’m doing a 950x650px layout, I set the width of the document’s properties in Inkscape to 950x650px. When I export to png format from Inkscape to use in graphics programs, I make sure to use 96dpi. If I do it like this, everything works out just fine.
