Free GIS stuff

Working on my master thesis and I need to make some maps. I'm pretty well experienced with ArcGIS but department doesn't have enough licenses and my work could be done at departments machines. So atm I'm working with QGIS. It seems to be close enough so I can do basic stuff. Anyone here know if there's something even closer to ArcGIS or have some tips getting used to QGIS? Also I would like to get some good sites for free to use shapefile data. Or ASCII and TIFF I guess. I've already got pretty much every higher res stuff Natural Earth has. And the package from EuroGlobalMap. I'll be needing stuff around the world since my examples cover almost all continents (except Africa). I'm not sure how easy it would be to get some sat images from NASA. I need something to demonstrate sinkholes in Florida.
