This review is from: 250,000 Clip Art Plus 3,000 Designer Photo (CD-ROM)

I bought this used and was extremely disappointed in the product. While I paid a whole $$ for it, that's about all it is worth, if even. There is no search for the clipart and no book to look up the images. Yeah they are categorized nicely on 2 cd's but what if you don't know what category a certain item would be listed under? Then you have to keep switching disks. Luckily I have a thumbnail program that will allow me to print out a catalogue on my own.

The only search engine I found was on the photo objects disk. And I just found out it's part of their 50,000 collection, which I already have. So that's worthless to me also.

The web images disks actually let you choose the item, color and shape but the catologue runs really slow (and I have a fast computer).

As for the photos. I'm sorry but images at 200 dpi and only 10k (2x3 inches...ouch) are NOT high quality photos as stated on the packaging. This can not be used for any type of print work AT ALL. I have not yet found a Clipart package that had high resolution images. So beware if this is what you are looking for.

Overall, rating it 1 star was generous but I will be able to use the clipart images at least. It will just be a hassle trying to find the right one.
