I need a DDR2 SODIMM connector part for Fritzing, any suggestions?

Basically I am trying to make a custom board for the compute module but I cannot find the connector on Fritzing or the internet and have no idea what to do. I'm done with my design, just the connector is the problem.

 

And before you ask, I do NOT want to use/buy EAGLE.

    I'm not surprised you are finding it hard to locate a SODIMM connector for Fritzing because most likely no-one has created it. Fritzing for PCB creation is like using an icing sugar nozzle for essay writing.

    However, inkscape workflow is well documented for creating parts for Fritzing, so if you absolutely need such a part then it should be possible to create your own by using inkscape.

    Well, do you know better software that is very cheap/free.

    KiCAD is free and open source and is used by CERN. I have not used it, but I know it will have a learning curve - most pro CAD packages have a learning curve. EAGLE is free for small 2-layer personal projects (non-commercial use) and is closed source. It too has a learning curve.

    There are other free CAD packages too, there is a thread listing them here.
