Peter J.Heizmann Posted December 3, 2006 Share Posted December 3, 2006 Hi, Peter...Sincerely, the Web Site looks great. Well balanced and attractive. Some great clipart samples, too.I have been involved with commercial art as a hobby since highschool and really appreciate the wide variety you show, not to mention refreshing new ones.Peter J... <img src="http://forums.aaca.org/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
novaman Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 The one thing I saw was limited choice of subject. I tend to look around to find what I want instead of doing a true search. It still can be done by using say the transportaion, then clicking say an image of a car then using the keywords listed there.It is a very nice site to view. I found it easy to read, and the colors are warm, inviting, and easy on the eyes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John_S_in_Penna Posted December 12, 2006 Share Posted December 12, 2006 Peter, your clip-art site certainly is extensive! There should be something there for just about any subject!If you wouldn't mind educating me, though: What exactly is the purpose of clip-art? <img src="http://forums.aaca.org/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" /> I have noticed that most clip-art sources have what I would call "goofy" art: simple, casually sketched, sometimes distorted, sometimes humorous. I have seen newsletters use it as fillers for that odd space that needs something; or sometimes to illustrate a headline. But (and please don't get me wrong), I can't see that any serious publication would be using clip-art. I can't imagine National Geographic or Fortune or our own Antique Automobile using the typical clip-art illustration.What would be especially useful, in my opinion, would be a source of more "serious" illustrations: an attractive detailed illustration of an actual car from the '50's, for example, rather than a generic distorted one; or a detailed pen-and-ink drawing of a street scene from the 1910's; or a stipple portrait of Henry Ford a la The Wall Street Journal.I hope you'll take this question and suggestion only in the positive vein it was intended!

novaman Posted December 12, 2006 Share Posted December 12, 2006 Peter, it not the content of the site I was referring to. It was the navigation when not knowing exactly what I wanted and was surfing the site. I chose transportaion on the main page but then needed to click on a clipart to get "sub catagories" to view instead of having to look at all the cliparts in transportation.Your site is definately not lacking for clipart.
