Pencil is a cross-platform and easy-to-use 2D drawing/ animation software. Pencil lets you create traditional hand-drawn animations (cel, cartoons, etc) using both bitmap and vector graphics.Pencil is not intended to mimic web-oriented vector-based animation software such as Flash. Its main purpose is to make traditional animation. Neither does Pencil try to rival commercial software targeting the professional animation sector. Pencil is intended to be a simple program enabling anyone to make 2D animation.
This software is great if you want to rough out an animation before creating it in 3D, or if you just want to animate in 2D. Pencil is free and open source.
Download Pencil for Ubuntu. Start using Pencil now!
N.B. It has come to my attention that a conman out there is selling Pencil for US$13.50.
Pencil is FREE and Open Source. Do NOT pay a cent for Pencil, but if you insist, make a donation to its developers.

I like this animation software very much, but it should have it's own file extension so projects can be opened by double-clicking a file. Thanks!
