I am working for a graphics company that needs an application that will make sprite sheets and animated gifs. We have been using Pixen on the Mac but are switching many of our workstations to Linux. Is there anything equivalent to Pixen that runs well on Ubuntu?
Thanks,
C. A. MacFinn

what do you mean by "work with free software only"? If you mean "run
only free software" I'm afraid you are wrong:

As a matter of fact, running free software only is not enough to enable
user's freedom at full. One must also be able to modify the software
that is running on the device, that is, build and run their own version
- something granted by the GPLv3 (and not by v2).

This seems quite off-topic...
Anyway: yes, i would.
At the same time, despite Debian is not in the FSF's free distros list
I know it is (now, since squeeze) very near to be a fully free distro
(and thre are rumors that FSF and Debian are discussing about this...).
Conversely, Ubuntu is very FAR to be a free distro.

Ubuntu can be configured to install only free software, and you can
install linux-libre, which makes it as free as Debian is, as far as I'm
concerned.
I haven't heard any "rumors" about the FSF and "Debian" (Debian is huge;
what part of debian are you talking about?) "discussing" Debian's
freedom status. Debian's freedom status is clear and obvious as long as
it keeps recommending non-free software.
