Great Variety! April 21, 2008 2 out of 3 found this review helpful
Love the Nova 800,000 clip art. Has a great variety of clips for everything I need and works easily with my scrapbook program. Only picture I couldn't find was a good orchard picture, but oh well. It's a great value.
Tons of clip art... April 5, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
The amount of clip art is more than any mere mortal will ever need. The art ranges from animated to more sophisticated. My biggest criticism of this product is the system to look up the art on the 32 DVDs that it comes with. Sometimes it's difficult to find exactly which DVD it's located on. I'm confused as to why they didn't number the DVDs and then put the corresponding number of that DVD under the clip art in the guide book but they didn't so it makes finding the particular picture much more difficult than it has to be. If you are a casual user and want some simple clip art this probably wouldn't be a good product for you.
Not so bad... February 15, 2008 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
Before I purchased this program, I read A LOT of customer reviews. Most of those reviews were not great, and I almost did not buy this program. I'm glad I did. There were a lot of complaints about the clip art not been catagorized very well and it being hard to find what you're looking for. But, if you really stop to think about it, how in the world do you organize 800,000 images?!?! I feel this is a great collection of clip art. It comes with a huge 1700 page book which catalogues the images for you. Be aware the images are not in color in the book, they are just small black/white images to give you an idea. Take a rainy day and familarize yourself with the catagories in the catalogue and you shouldn't have any trouble finding the image that you want. For instance, if you want a picture of something pertaining to Christmas, Halloween, or Easter, you would look in the catalogue under "Holidays". Once you get familiar with the catagories, it should be easier and easier to find what you're looking for. Also, be aware that this product is just a collection of clip art, and you will need a separate program in which you import the images. I use my Windows browser to open the images on the CDs, then I use drop & drag to import the image into my Print Shop program.
Not Crazy about Art Explosion December 10, 2007 2 out of 4 found this review helpful
I returned this product after reviewing the book to see how the program works. I have Print Artist and it's so much easier to use than Art Explosion. When I'm looking for a particular picture in Print Artist, I type a word and it gives me numerous pictures to choose from. From what I read about Art Explosion, you have to look up the picture in a book and then find the right CD.
Great artwork and fonts November 1, 2007 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
Disc 3 was actually a duplicate of disc 30. I needed the vector artwork contained on disc 3 and contacted the manufacturer. They did ship me out a correct disc 3 very promptly. However, it arrived with a 70 cent postage due envelope.
I am passing on this information because the manufacturer warned me that a large shipment of Art Explosion 800,000 was released with this error. Amazon needs to be aware of the problem. Regards, PJK
