Hey all!

There are so many softwares coming up everyday, you kind of lose track of them. Some are pretty lame while others totally rock! Anyway, the point is, we often make discoveries of new programs, and why not share it with others? Post all the softwares you regularly use/ found… Of course, open-source!

Some softwares:

Blender

GIMP

Inkscape

Alchemy

Art of Illusion. (Just found this one… It’s like Blender, I think)

Psycledelics

I did a search and didn’t find his sort of thread so, your turn!

Apophysis is a fun fractal generator/animator. It’s for Windows. I think it might run in Wine, according to a quick search.
