    Hi All

    Is there any free online graphic design software that anyone can recommend?

    I am not looking to do anything too complicated, just want to have a go at creating my own header and advertising banners.

    Cheers

    Jake

    free online graphic design software, do you mean a software that you can just use your browser and can design from there?
    not sure if there is..

    just like GIMP, Inkscape is better for vector graphics

    Gimp is my choice, easy to use and able to provide functioning close to photoshop, Inkcape is good but am not really into it.

    These are all very great recommendations, if you want to add something to your list to check I would recommend giving Aviary.com a check, they have many programs all for free, all in browser (only problem is that it slows down work effeciency significantly)

    I have a suggestion if you want to use a graphic design software in your browser directly you can check this
    pixlr[dot]com.

    The interface of this is like photoshop. you can check it out. I hope it may help!
