NewsForge looks at GIMP, SodiPodi and Inkscape. "The GIMP is great for raster graphics, but what about vector editing? That's a big part about what you have to do in Photoshop, right? The GIMP has one filter, called G-Fig, that gives you some limited vector editing capacity, but if you want to do very stylish graphics, you need a vector graphics package. In this area, the open source user turns to Sodipodi or Inkscape."
