I use Eagle, it is free and very commonly used so if adapting designs from
others is part of what you are doing then it is great.
The negative with Eagle is that it does not work like any other Windows app
and requires considerable time to learn. One example of this is if you
want to delete something you click delete and then click the object you
want to delete, this is the opposite of how most other apps work.
The free version will do a two layer board up to 8cm x 5cm (just under 3
inches x 2 inches) so OK for most things especially if you are using SMD
components.
