These are two questions, but they're both about graphics programs:

First: 

I've been using GIMP, gradually getting better at retouching photos with
it and such, but I am nowhere near being able to do the sort of things I
see as example GIMP work.

What's your best recommendation for a good book or online reference for
thoroughly learning GIMP?

Second:

My understanding is that GIMP is a pixel-based program, and that things
like Corel Draw are vector based.  I have CAD programs (LibreCad is
pretty good), and those are, indeed, vector based, but they're for
making mechanical drawings -- not for making pretty logos and decals and
whatnot.

So -- is there a good "make it pretty" sort of vector-based graphics
program that's freely available?

Thanks.
