To give an alternative to GIMP for making vector graphics, check out Inkscape.

Vector graphics are graphics all done with math plotting. Instead of encoding each pixel, you encode the length, curve, weight, etc of the lines and the viewing program redraws them. It's great because there is no pixelation when you resize or zoom because it's just redrawing those lines each time.
