5.0 out of 5 stars A Super Nova of a Product!, June 28, 2000

By	L. Patterson "graphic designer and Mac wonk" (Rising Fawn, Georgia USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

After struggling with an on-line clip art service and it's down-times vaguaries, I purchased the Art Explosion 750,000. I have never used clip art from CDs, but this was super easy to get the hang of. Stick in the CD, click on it, pick a category, then browse, drag clip to Photoshop icon or download to disc and voila! I have an iMac and a G4 and the clips really fly by. The selection is fabulous-from retro to abstract and and they always print out true-to-color, high resolution and non-jaggy. A bonus is the inclusion 2 gigantic books of the images, alphabets, photos and fonts so that you can get the general idea of what your're after. Also included: a collection of fonts from Agfa and Bitstream as well as an extensive photo collection, raster art collection and alphabets and backgrounds. It is so much bigger (48CDs), faster and more convenient than I ever envisioned, I'm sorry that I didn't get it sooner. Really a help in my hectic typesetting business!

1.0 out of 5 stars Watch out Mac G5 owners ...., October 16, 2003

By A Customer

I just got a Mac G5 with 2 GB of RAM and was looking forward to using this product. I would have to agree that from the book most of the clipart contained in this set is cartoonish, but my worst complaint is that I just couldn't install it. On install all you'll get is a window stating you don't have enough RAM and fail to continue.

Nova Development software support wasn't any help either. They were VERY familiar with the problem and the tech made it clear that a fix would NOT be coming out anytime in the near future. He immediately gave me the phone # to call and get a refund ... and I'll use it.

3.0 out of 5 stars Useful, but still lacking, March 5, 2002

By A Customer

I bought this book mainly hoping I could find good illustrations of a diverse selection of people. I find that most of those illustrations are too cartoonish for editorial use, and don't show much variety. The high resolution photos were of no use either as they are actually only "medium" resolution. They would be great for web usage but not for print. Also, I wasn't able to use the electronic image catalog and was unable to search the photographs effectively since the file names are not descriptive.
If you're looking for illustrations of things rather than people, then this is a good source. The vector images are well organized and the print catalog is easy to use. Overall, I'd say this is a good product, but I don't think it offers much more than the 525,000 or 600,000 image versions.
