The most popular vector tool on Linux

Inkscape is an Open Source vector graphics editor, with capabilities similar to Illustrator, Freehand, CorelDraw, or Xara X using the W3C standard Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) file format. Supported SVG features include shapes, paths, text, markers, clones, alpha blending, transforms, gradients, patterns, and grouping. Inkscape also supports Creative Commons meta-data, node editing, layers, complex path operations, bitmap tracing, text-on-path, flowed text, direct XML editing, and more. It imports formats such as JPEG, PNG, TIFF, and others and exports PNG as well as multiple vector-based formats.

    I don't know how I ever got along without this program. It makes graphic heavy web design a snap (just export each object as a transparent PNG, no slicing so you get maximum control) and it's fun to use.

    Great program for drawing vector images. It doesn't have as much as features as Illustrator but it's simple and free. Oh, and drawing in Inkscape is so easy.
