I am a developer but need to create some graphics! I have the Adobe Illustrator trial which is about to expire. Is there any other application which is less expensive and have the same features as Adobe Illustrator?

Inkscape is more than enough for the dabbler, and has quite a decent number of features for professionals as well.

I agree with Ignacio that InkScape is the only free alternative.

A good commercial alternative is the not too-costly and well-noted Xara Xtreme ($89).

With a bit of googling I came accross the following softwares which you might want to try out:

  • Xara for linux (http://www.xaraxtreme.org)
  • Inkscape for windows, mac and linux (http://www.inkscape.org)
  • Skencil for linux and unix (http://www.skencil.org)
