There is a world-wide economy slowdown, and everyone trims fat to return companies to being profitable.

I certainly hope that it changes soon (or | that I'm proven wrong). Why do you think that someone would be interested to make such tools? And other part (potential users/graphic artists) would pay for those tools? I doubt that next-generation content creator (supporting SVG) from Adobe or Corel would be free. -- Best Regards, Vadim Plessky SVG Icons http://svgicons.sourceforge.net
