Sodipodi is a vector-based drawing program, like CorelDraw or Adobe Illustrator from the proprietary software world, and Sketch or Karbon14 from the free software world. It is free software, distributed under the terms of the Gnu General Public License, Version 2. It uses W3C SVG as its native file format and therefore is a very useful tool for web designers. Sodipodi is written in C, using the Gtk+ toolkit and optionally some Gnome libraries.

    Windows version is very buggy and outdated. The interface is unfriendly by trying too much to be minimalist.
    Check out Inkscape instead for a better mantained, open-source, fork of the project. And with a better interface.

    Bro. Rat: 32mb runtime environment!? Yeah right!

    It's only a bit over 5megs. And if you use GIMP for Windows and/or GAIM for Windows then you don't have to download it multiple times, they all use the same GTK package. In fact if you already have GAIM for Windows installed and working, then you already have GTK+ installed properly and don't need to redownload it.
    Sodipodi is excellent for what is intended. The format IS A STANDARD! Look it up. You're right about the documentation though. Like most Linux software the documentation is VERY POOR! However you can get a quickstart guide here that covers most of the basics: http://hawthorn.csse.mon...awing-packages/sodipodi/

    I manage to crash it 4 times in the first 10 minutes when clicking the selection tool...and has the same problem that gimp has.. regardless of OS.. a incredibly cluttered interface that makes it more of a "hunt for the right palette" than a useful tool..
