  Sally W. asked:

  Does anyone know of any free project management software especially suited to Graphic Designers?

  

  Pierre M. replied:

  I can't claim any expertise in the precise requirements for Graphic Designers Sally but you might like to take a look at ProjectLibre Project Management http://www.projectlibre.org/ with additional information at http://www.linux.com/directory/Software/projectlibre-project-management-software which describes it as - "ProjectLibre is a replacement of Microsoft Project. It is compatible with Microsoft Project 2003 and 2010. It can simply open existing Microsoft Project files" You'll find the Windows download at http://sourceforge.net/projects/projectlibre/files/ProjectLibre/1.5.8/projectlibre-1.5.8.msi/download and the other OS downloads (Mac, Linux etc) at http://sourceforge.net/projects/projectlibre/files/ProjectLibre/1.5.8/ It's open source software which means that it doesn't cost you anything (though you can donate) and it would seem to both read and write the Microsoft Project file format. And if you want a free Office Suite that can read and write Microsoft Office file formats then try LibreOffice at www.libreoffice.org with downloads available for Windows, Mac & Linux I last used MS Office (at Home as work didn't give me a choice) about 20 yrs ago. I then found OpenOffice and then it's 'successor' LibreOffice and can thoroughly recommend it!

  Renae H. asked:

  Can anyone recommend a good project management tool that doesn't cost an arm and leg? One that allows you to track hours spent on different tasks would be good too.
