The Top 5 Clip Art Sites

 

 

Microsoft Office Clip Art and Media Homepage

I have been using this clip art site for numerous projects. It contains over 140,000 images including clip art, graphics, animations, pictures, and sounds. You can type in keywords to search for certain types of clip art and you can copy and paste the images onto word documents or other places. This is the best clip art page I have discovered yet.

Google Images

This website is my number two pick for finding clip art and other types of graphics for projects. You can type in specific keywords such as “smiling cow” and get all kinds of results. I am rarely disappointed with this website. Images found through Google come from various other websites and are subject to copyright. To be safe, you can usually credit the company or person who supplied the clip art on Google Images by looking at the information under the picture or clip art.

Discovery School Clip Art

This clip art site offers excellent clip art images and is highly organized into various categories, making it very easy to search for desired clip art. The clip art is free, however you must reference the discovery school each time you use their graphics on websites.

Free Educational Clip Art

An excellent clip art site for anything school related. This site features original clip art designs as well as clip art from other websites. The clip art may be used for non-commercial purposes and the company would prefer to be credited when you use their images.
