GIMP is an advanced picture editor. You can use it to edit, enhance, and
retouch photos and scans, create drawings, and make your own images.
It has a large collection of professional-level editing tools and
filters, similar to the ones you might find in Photoshop. Numerous
fine-control settings and features like layers, paths, masks, and
scripting give you total control over your images.
Many image file formats are supported, including JPEG, Photoshop (.psd),
and Paint Shop Pro (.psp) files. It can also be used to scan and print
photos.
To open files remotely (like over HTTP), install the gvfs-backends
package.
To use a MIDI device (like a musical keyboard) as an input controller in GIMP,
install libasound2 and read the how-to at /usr/share/doc/gimp/README.MIDI

Inkscape is an illustration editor which has everything needed to
create professional-quality computer art. You can use it to make
diagrams and illustrations, technical drawings, web graphics, clip art,
icons and logos. A collection of hands-on tutorials show you how to
combine lines, shapes and text of different types and styles to build
up a picture.
A selection of powerful vector graphics editing tools comes as
standard. There is excellent support for paths, gradients, layers,
alpha transparency and text flow control. An extensive library of
filters allow you to apply realistic effects and extensions allow you
to work with bitmaps, barcodes and printing marks, amongst other things.
Most of the common vector formats are supported, including PDF, Adobe
Illustrator and AutoCAD files, and it has unrivalled support for the
SVG web graphics standard.
Between the suggested packages:
- dia: to export Dia shapes;
- libsvg-perl: to import .txt files (txt2svg extension);
- python3-packaging: used by the Optimized SVG extension;
- python3-uniconvertor: enables several import/export extensions;
- pstoedit: to work with eps files;
- ruby: there are several extensions written in ruby;

Blender is an integrated 3d suite for modelling, animation, rendering,
post-production, interactive creation and playback (games). Blender has its
own particular user interface, which is implemented entirely in OpenGL and
designed with speed in mind. Python bindings are available for scripting;
import/export features for popular file formats like 3D Studio and Wavefront
Obj are implemented as scripts by the community. Stills, animations, models
for games or other third party engines and interactive content in the form of
a standalone binary are common products of Blender use.

Hugin is a panorama photo stitching program. Essentially, Hugin is a
GUI frontend for Panorama Tools. Stitching is accomplished by using
several overlapping photos taken from the same location, and using
control points to align and transform the photos so that they can be
blended together to form a larger image. Hugin allows for the easy
creation of control points between two images, optimization of the
image transforms, and much more.
This package includes the following graphical interfaces, using the
command-line tools provided in the hugin-tools package:
- hugin - Hugin panorama creator.
- hugin_stitch_project - Hugin batch stitcher.
- PTBatcherGUI - Batch controller for the stitching process.
- calibrate_lens_gui - Lens calibration tool.
The package is enhanced by the following packages:

Tgif (originally the "Tangram Graphic Interface Facility") is a
classic drawing program for 2D vector graphics. Image objects can
be hierarchically constructed out of primitives such as polygons,
text, and splines (though the splines Tgif draws are not Bézier
curves).
It natively supports PostScript formats suitable for LaTeX, as well
as X11 bitmap or (version 1) pixmap formats. Other vector and raster
image formats such as SVG and PNG can be handled via filters.
Tgif stores drawings as .obj files and individual building-block
objects as .sym files, both in Prolog-compatible fact file format.

XaoS allows you to zoom and pan around a fractal in
real time. It can display the animated fractals in graphical
or even plain text mode.
It displays the Mandelbrot set or many other fractals and
allows you to zoom smoothly into the fractal. Various coloring
modes are provided for both the points inside and outside the
selected set. In addition, switching between Mandelbrot and Julia
fractal types is provided.
Other features include autopilot mode, palette changing,
image saving, fractal inversion, filters, and a built in fractal
tutorial.

XFig is a menu-driven tool that allows the user to draw and
manipulate objects interactively in an X window. The resulting
pictures can be saved. If the fig2dev program is installed, which is
contained in the fig2dev package, the pictures can be printed on
postscript printers or converted to a variety of other formats (e.g.
to allow inclusion in LaTeX documents or web pages).
This package contains the xfig program itself.
You should think about installing the fig2dev package to export the
graphics to several common formats. You should also think about
installing xfig-doc, which contains the documentation and xfig-libs,
which contains several clip art libraries.
