After Installation, How To Run?

Hi, all! I've successfully installed both Inkscape and The Gimp, but how do I run them? If I type the name on the command line, I get errors. I don't see icons in the Applications folder. So now what? Thanks. -- Jeffery Martin Links of the moment: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saint_Mary's_County,_Maryland http://www.stanns.org/
