 » ParticleDraw 5.1
download web site opinions problem?
  ParticleDraw is a novel Windows drawing program powered by a state of the art general system simulation engine. The brushes used in ParticleDraw are dynamic systems of particles with interesting behaviours, completely customizable. Each brush is intricately tuneable with many underlying physical parameters and one can construct arbitrary systems of particles. ParticleDraw is still in development and is evolving into a mathematically derived operating system for "general systems". It was inspired by system theory and ancient metaphysics and is essentially a fusion of esoteric mathematics with computer science. ParticleDraw provides a reality generative process that manifests existential spaces with fundamental information theoretic properties similar to our own empirical universe. This program is entirely free with full source code and detailed information on the website.

 » Dia 0.9+
download web site opinions problem?
  Dia is roughly inspired by the commercial Windows program 'Visio', though more geared towards informal diagrams for casual use. It can be used to draw many different kinds of diagrams. It currently has special objects to help draw entity relationship diagrams, UML diagrams, flowcharts, network diagrams, and many other diagrams. It is also possible to add support for new shapes by writing simple XML files, using a subset of SVG to draw the shape. It can load and save diagrams to a custom XML format (gzipped by default, to save space), can export diagrams to a number of formats, including EPS, SVG, XFIG, WMF and PNG, and can print diagrams (including ones that span multiple pages). Dia is Open Source and you are encouraged to help its development by reporting any problems/bugs.
Note: finding download files on Sourceforge can be confusing! Our 'download' links will direct you to the "Browse all Files" page, you need to scroll down until you see the "*-win32-install.exe" link.

  Vector graphics is actually one of those small areas which is very under represented on the Internet and very difficult to find. If you are looking for vector art, it is big probability it will cost you some money. If it's free then it's hidden under the ocean of pop-ups or other advertisements. VectorPortal intends to offer a helping hand to everyone who works with vector graphics through free vector files, tutorials and news from the industry. It should work as a universal source for free vector files. It relies on all artists out there to upload vector stuff they have and download what they need. If it's not available here, then we will try to find links for totally free stuff. This is not a company, but a voluntary project that came out of pure desperation. If you have anything to contribute to this web site, you are welcome to do so.

  The program Drawing for Children is a drawing program that is especially suited for small children, they don't need to be able to read to use it. Also, rather than asking the user to set all sorts of options it simply gives a large number of different ways of drawing, the best way to learn what the program can do is to simply play with all the buttons. There are normal drawing commands, for drawing lines, circles, etc. but also many weird ones to draw railroads, pipes, bubbles, grass, etc. Just try experimenting to make the weirdest pictures. There are many different pens, stamps, cliparts, backgrounds, and special effects.
