1. Site News

Awards: Just today were were awarded Site of the week at Clipart.com. You can find a link to clipart.com on our main page. They posted our new button there in a large format. We have been adding some links to some free sites and Art Today. Some of these free sites have some really good free offers, so we thought it would be nice to link to them. We have been adding to the freesite link list which you can look at here .(Note for archive readers, this section is no longer updated, it was replaced by the reviewed link directory)

Of course you can always make a request on monday, if you can't find what you are looking for. If you see a button or link, feel free to visit them as they were kind enough to link to us. Clicking on our links is a form of voting for us as a good site, so they will list us in more prominent locations. When you click on most of our links, they will open a new window for that site. You can always close that window and we are still there waiting for you to continue your browsing.

2. New Additions to the Site

We have just added a couple of very popular sections onto our main page. We added an Animation category in which we offer a currently small selection of the animated clipart we have made. This section will grow significantly as requests and as we make new additions to it. We recently bought a nice new program to do animations with, and so we expect the quality to improve as well. I made the new button of our boat being eaten with this program.
We also added the popular site map which we mentioned last news letter. You can click on the link below our categories to access the site map from main. You can find it also at Map This section was so worthwhile, we noticed two sites copy our idea shortly after.
We have added a Mother's day category that can be found under both Holidays and also under Special Occasions .

-------------------------------------

5. Question of the Week
Q: I would like a slight change to the clipart you made for me. Is it a lot of work to change it?

A: The answer totally depends on the clipart. For an animation, it is a big change because we are manipulating more than one image. For small changes on regular clipart it is often just a slight edit on the computer. Some changes might involve massive redrawing either right from paper or on the computer. We usually like to get it right the first time as it takes away from other people's requests when a clipart is redone, this is why it is best to describe in as much detail as possible when you request.
