<em>&#8220;DBDesigner 4 is a visual database design system that integrates database design, modeling, creation and maintenance into a single, seamless environment.&#8221;</em> Looks very robust. One of the few tools that supports reverse engineering.</p>
<p><strong><a href="http://dev.mysql.com/workbench/">MySQL Workbench</a></strong><br />
<em>&#8220;MySQL Workbench is a cross-platform, visual database design tool developed by MySQL. It is the highly anticipated successor application of the DBDesigner4 project. MySQL Workbench will be available as a native GUI tool on Window, Linux and OS X.&#8221;</em> Currently beta but check out the <a href="http://dev.mysql.com/workbench/?page_id=35">screenshots</a>.</p>
<p><strong><a href="http://www.phpmyadmin.net/">phpMyAdmin</a></strong><br />
<em>&#8220;phpMyAdmin is a tool written in PHP intended to handle the administration of MySQL over the Web. Currently it can create and drop databases, create/drop/alter tables, delete/edit/add fields, execute any SQL statement, manage keys on fields.&#8221;</em> Web-based, very mature and stable product.</p>
<p><strong><a href="http://www.mysql.com/products/tools/query-browser/">MySQL Query Browser</a></strong><br />
<em>&#8220;MySQL Query Browser is the easiest visual tool for creating, executing, and optimizing SQL queries for your MySQL Database Server. The MySQL Query Browser gives you a complete set of drag-and-drop tools to visually build, analyze and manage your queries.&#8221;</em> Includes simple but solid tools for building and managing databases and tables.</p>
<p><strong><a href="http://www.gnu.org/software/ferret/project/what.html">Ferret</a></strong><br />
<em>&#8220;GNU Ferret (formerly known as GerWin) is the Free Entity Relationship and Reverse Engineering Tool.&#8221;</em> Development seems to have stopped which is too bad because it has potential.</p>
<p>And <a href="http://del.icio.us/fd/database%2Btools">here are links to some more database design applications</a> (some commercial) at del.icio.us.</p>
