3.0 out of 5 stars Just adding it to the collection
I love Dover's CD ROM & Book series. In fact, I would classify myself as a junkie. I have every Egyptian-related release that Dover has ever published, and while the illustrations in the book are very striking and crisp, if you look at the TIF's on the enclosed CD ROM, they are extremely amateurish and sloppy.

This review is from: Full-Color Egyptian Ornament CD-ROM and Book (Dover Electronic Clip Art) (Paperback)
I love Dover's CD ROM & Book series. In fact, I would classify myself as a junkie. I have every Egyptian-related release that Dover has ever published, and while the illustrations in the book are very striking and crisp, if you look at the TIF's on the enclosed CD ROM, they are extremely amateurish and sloppy. If you are thinking about using them for any sort of web or book project, then without a doubt you will be spending a great deal of time doing cleanup and colour re-adjustment in Photoshop, Paintshop Pro or another graphics editor. The colours of items, glyphs and fleshtones are not at all consistent to Ancient Egyptian artistic canon and grammar. Also, there is an almost excessive use of the colour orange within the geometric patterns as well. One gets the feeling you have seen the same pattern over and over again with very few variations on a theme.

I love these kind of things. I use them to fill in backgrounds for collage and they certainly do the trick. What more can I say? Dover, please publish more of these.
