About Inkscape

Whether you are an illustrator, designer, web designer or just someone who needs to create some vector imagery, Inkscape is for you! The design process may begin by doodles on a napkin, a sketched mindmap, a photo of a memorable object, or a mockup in software which really wouldn't work to complete the project. Inkscape can take you from this stage to a final, professional-grade design format which is ready for publication on the web or in physical form. Inkscape is free! By this, we mean it is free of cost, free to use and distribute, and open to peek into the source code.

    *You can import graphics files (PDF,AI etc.) of other software as well.
    *New version 1.0 also has CMYK support
    *Awesome community on Facebook.

    Cons: Crashes sometime (but always a create a backup file).
    Less support on 3D Graphics.

    Overall: A good vector graphic design software which can almost beat any paid software like Adobe Illustrator or Corel Draw.
