One thing. Is there an application in Linux that can edit this file
type? Unfortunantly I am unable to afford Illustrator. I will see what I
can come up with. I tried opening the file in Gimp but got one layer.
Also the fact that the text looked funny. Example below. I wonder if
there is either a work around or another vector based format that we can
all use. :/
There _is_ ill2svg...

However, to effectively edit the graphics, you need Illustrator. There isn't anything on Linux which allows you to edit vector art even close to Illustrator (or Freehand).
Once you do convert it to SVG from AI, then you should be able to play around with it in Sodipodi or Inkscape (the Sodipodi fork). Sketch may also work. Still, these tools don't really compare to Illustrator, unfortunately.
Aside from the icons and splash screens and what-not, one can still help out with the artwork. There are other things which need to be done. Feedback, mockups, ideas, etc. -- I'll provide more info about these things as the time arises. (Feel free to bring up things on this list too.)
