I've purchased hundreds of dollars in royalty free clip art and photos, but Hemera is the best by FAR in my opinion.

This particular collection is on 2 CD's, and comes with a browser that's way more stable than some of the other collections out there ( Like Masterclips for example..UGH!). The browser gives you the option of exporting the pictures in a multitude of ways and makes it easy enough that a total novice will have no trouble! It's also got nifty font features too.

Resizing the photos and images in this software is a breeze, with NO quality loss in the images! This, and the quality of the images provided have made me a loyal Hemera customer.

This collection is definitely worth the small investment!

I bought this collection as part of an emergency project--I needed a photo of someone in a graduation cap and gown. I figured if the only thing I got was a picture of the graduate, for $10 I was satisfied. Well, this whole collection has quality photos throughout. The subject matter was well thought out, covering a wide range of special events. The photos are professionally produced, not the poor quality ones of someone's vacation that are under/overexposed. Having the background deleted for me and ready to go within Photoshop was a big time saver, and the deletion was done correctly--things like fine strands of hair are left in, making the photo realistic after you put your own background in. The browser is easy to use and provides options for using the photos for the casual hobbyist as well as the graphics professional. I expect to be buying Hemera's large 50,000 collection as soon as I can afford it. I am a professional graphic designer.

I purchased this software, and i have to say the quality of the clip art is excellent.I am going to order another Hermera product.

This product was highly satisfactory overall. I was mainly interested in getting some clipart for one specific type of event, graduation, and the collection did have some acceptable images. The collection does seem to have a lot of goofy, distorted images, like where the person's face is oversized, or distorted, and I don't like to use those type of images. However, there are apparently some people who like that sort of image, so there may be some uses of them for some people. Anyway... like I said it also has images I consider highly usable. A tricky thing about clipart collections in general is the license aggreement, which sometimes can allow only print versions of the images or has other complications that are troublesome. This collection had an acceptable license aggreement ... I could use the images on a web site, so it is also good in that respect. The images offered are all on the CD, that is good too. (Some collections are sold just a come-on to buy a clipart subscription, but this collection is on the CD, so again it is a good deal.) This particular collection is a few years old based on the copyright, however that is ok with me because my use requires a classic sort of image. So overall, this product is OK with me.
