Senarai Aplikasi Sumber Terbuka (Grafik)

Untuk entri kali ini dikongsikan senarai beberapa aplikasi sumber terbuka grafik 2D dan 3D bagi digunakan secara percuma dalam Ubuntu. Sumber diperolehi daripada beberapa blog dan website yang pernah saya kunjungi. Diharapkan ianya akan dapat membantu bukan sahaja pengguna Ubuntu malahan pengguna MS Windows sebagai alternatif kepada aplikasi berbayar. Sila layari website aplikasi berkenaan untuk keterangan lanjut mengenainya.
