Lineform is an excellent, Cocoa-based drawing application. I use it for all my vector artwork.

Sensational tool. I'm about to buy, I'm just waiting for a "Save for web" kind of functionality.

Don't bother - the demo slaps their watermark on your page so you can't tell what your final actually looks like. You're better off saving the $59 - buy yourself some drinks and use the free online apps which are actually nicer to use, faster and no watermarking.
It's fine to add a watermark after 7 days or something but ZERO days? - bad policy and should be discouraged - just because it's PhotoShop Elements Lite does not mean it shoudl follow Adobe's SOP.

You know, if you don't like the watermarks, you could consider actually paying for the software. The free download is just that - a demo - so you can decide if you like it enough to buy. It sounds to me like you're complaining that the software isn't free.
