Free Vectors: VectorLab Sample Pack

February 11, 2009 | Posted in Freebies, Resources | 37 Comments »

I’ve got a great freebie for everyone today. A new stock vector site, TheVectorLab.com would like to spread some love to the design community with a sample vector pack. Vectorlab is a great new site with a growing collection of high quality stock vectors for designers. Even better, you can apply as a contributor and earn a 60% commission on the vector art you sell. Yet another great way to put your creativity to good use during a recession. Even Even Better: TheVectorLab donates 5% of their proceeds to St. Judes Children’s Research Hospital. :)

Freeware Find: DrawBerry – A Free Vector Editor for OS X

September 15, 2008 | Posted in Software | 15 Comments »

I recently found a little gem in the ever-growing list of software of the Apple site. DrawBerry is a free vector graphics editor for OS X. It has a slick, Pixelmator-like interface and is pretty easy to use. It’s not as powerful as Inkscape, but it’s much more lightweight and it’s very easy to use. Some features to note are, layers, opacity, blending modes, history, fill shapes with images, SVG support, shape alignment tool, and much more. Check out the video below, and screenshots to get a closer look.
