Check this out folks. A very robusk little app that has some great potential. And it's Open Source too. How cool is that?!

Thanks, Mark. It looks fantastic.....esp for the price. ;)

Now that's great news Mark. It's about time that someone wakes up at Adobe and Macromedia, since both their vector applications seems to be... I dunno how to put it.... ignored by them?

You're welcome Lee.

I agree completely Joe. It's almost as if they've run out of ideas to further develop their programs.

This lil app is still only in beta and already has most of the features the others have, at an unbeatable price.

Open Source -- take back the Web! 3[

I dunno... \:]

If you don't have Illustrator and are strapped for a budget, Inkscape is an excellent way to learn vector graphics. I d/l'ed and looked at it for a few minutes and then uninstalled it and went back to Illustrator. To me it was to Illustrator what GIMP is to Photoshop, a great freebie but...

Just wanted to let everyone know that there is an upgrade available now. Looks like they have added several new features...
