Hi

I'm looking for a FOSS app to design icons

I heard of GIMP , Kirta and Inkscape ,are there other alternatives ? and which one of them is the best for this ?

The advantage here is that you can start baking in animations, themes, progressive enhancements. I would agree this isn’t the best tool for most authoring, but considering tow lackluster the XML editor is in Inkscape & how break points can make sure your icon is clear at all sizes, it is a good idea to spend time in a text editor as well.
