 Great if you use a lot of clip art April 27, 2005
A. Lyall
I add illustrative clip arts to dozens of article blurbs a day, and frequently find myself needing weird things like a picture of dirty tupperware. This clip art set is a GODSEND for me. Yes, there are dozens or hundreds of pictures on things most people will never use (I think there's nearly 100 pictures of oranges alone), but that also means it carries pictures of things that most clip art sets don't. When I need a picture of cloth diapers, it has 15 different pics for me to choose from. All of the pictures of objects are really high quality. Like the box says, all pictures are already cut out of the background, which looks pretty good on most web pages and is something I often do by hand on other sets anyway. The pictures of people are all cheesy and over-posed, but the cheese makes them useful for illustrating some things (like used car salesman). NOT a good clip art set for places/travel or scenes of people interacting, but since that's all most other clip art sets are, I'm happy about it. The software itself is the best I've found in clip art. The search works, and works well, and the pictures are listed with really good keywords. Also there's a category sort. The export can be a little annoying because you have to click OK so much, but it lets you export the image into pretty much any popular image format (TIFF, BMP, GIF, JPG, PSD, etc.) instead of using some hokey copy and paste thing like other sets will.
 Not at all what I wanted March 24, 2005

It is what they said - clip art. I wanted actual full photos, these are lower quality photos of something and it is cut out of the actual picture instead of a full picture. Don't waste your money and time unless you actually want clip art retro looking graphics.
If I could give it NO STARS I would. August 24, 2003

10 minutes after view this set up, all I could think was I want my money back!! 7 CDS of JUNK!!! And I am not kidding. There were a dozen photos of Scotland, for an example, and all of them were so horrible poor, if I did not know what Kilchurn Castle looked like I would not not I was looking at it in the photo!!That a respected organisation puts REJECTS in this shoddy product is beyond belief. The set installs with a webbrowser- only way to view the GARBAGE, it spend more time trying to sell you images from their collection on the net. This is a TOTAL RIP OFF and they should be a shamed they dared put this out.
 Best thing going...but.... August 17, 2003

I was hoping for a larger variety of useful photos, but they are great quality. The online subscription to the 'big box of 650000' is very helpful. These are not hemera photos, but I find myself using them regularly.Hemera photos are beautiful and "Yay!" copyright free. But a lot of them have me wondering "Why did they put all these in here?" There's a man with a turban doing this in one. Putting his arms sideways in the next. On his head in the next. etc" I would rather have a program with a man with a turban, then a tree, then an egg. BTW, I've never found a reason to use the man with the turban or the woman in the crazy clothes (lots of those). With regular upgrades, I know they are improving on the quantity and variety of selections. The browser that comes with this is easy to use and really is pretty good. But there are some quirks I don't like with it. For example, it's hard to just browse the different sections. And while it has a 'check all' button for the sections, it doesn't have an 'uncheck all'. Still, for this great price and for the wonderful quality, it's well worth your money. FYI: Another program that seems to have great quality clip art is Print Shop (I have version 12). They have a whole 'fine art' section which is impressive for clip art! It's a user-friendly program for graphics, and I prefer print shop to other programs (like Photoshop or MS Publisher) when making labels.
