Clipart from Webfeet.Biz
Do you know how the word Clpart originated?     We all use it today, especially on the net, but come to think of it it's a kinda funny word to use about computer graphics...
Before I offer you some Clipart, here's what Wikipedia says about it:
"The term "clip art" originated through the practice of physically cutting images from pre-existing printed works for use in other publishing projects. Before the advent of computers in publishing, clip art was used through a process called paste up..... In this process, the clip art images are cut out by hand, then attached via adhesives to a board representing a scale size of the finished, printed work. After the addition of text and art created through phototypesetting, the finished, camera-ready pages are called mechanicals. Since the 1990s, nearly all publishers have replaced the paste up process with desktop publishing.
"Clip art, in the graphic arts, refers to pre-made images used to illustrate any media. Today, clip art is used extensively in both personal and commercial projects.... Clip art comes in many forms, both electronic and printed. However, most clip art today is created, distributed, and used in an electronic form... Clip art is generally composed exclusively of illustrations (created by hand or by computer software), and does not include stock photography."
  I have been making websites ever since 1996. A few weeks ago, I looked back over my backed-up files and decided I had some quite nice sets of images that I could set up for free downloading in zipped packages. For those who are weary of the same old clipart stuff these will be something different and I plan to add sets of icons and other website graphics very shortly.
