Hello folks,
What's the best to use software (rather simple) to create drawings like bellow.
What software do you use to do so?
Microsoft Paint is a weak software to do so I think?

Google Sketchup has some potential ... not too difficult with a little practice.
The main objections would be that you have to make a 2d jpg file of your 3d sketch if you want to share it with anyone. You can send the 3d file versions, if you pay a significant fee.
The Gimp.
GIMP - The GNU Image Manipulation Program
It's on par with Photoshop as far as features go, but it's not excessively easy to use. Would take a while to learn.

Smartdraw is cool too.
The drawing program in the Open Office Org suite is a useful 3D capable package.

OpenOffice does not seem to be free anymore. I tried to DL it awhile back and they required a fee to get it. FYI

Inkscape is another one to look at. It's not feature-complete but it is pretty powerful.

WHAT!
Openoffice.org is free and will always be free, it is gpl code
There is only one site to get Openoffice from
OpenOffice.org - The Free and Open Productivity Suite - you may have stumbled upon another site trying to con users
As far as images are concerned
GIMP GIMP - The GNU Image Manipulation Program for RASTER editing
INKSCAPE Inkscape. Draw Freely. for VECTOR editing
I personally prefer a combination of the two. Bulk of the work done in Inkscape and then final touchup in GIMP
I like OpenOffice.org draw and Inkscape most.
I could never be bothered with GIMP.
I do not answer private messages asking for help because no one else can: benefit from advice I may give or correct me if I'm wrong.
Please ask on the open forum if you have a question and I'll be happy to help, if I know the answer.
I guess adobo photoshop will be easier for me. GIMP is a very easy to understand as well. And it's free.![]()
