Cool Clip Art!
Pictures always make things more
interesting. Kids prefer books with
illustrations, people “read” magazines for the pictures, and society grabs our
attention by using these colorful displays. The following sites will help you “liven up”
any computer produced document.
This website has a very wide variety of
clipart available and is centered around students using it. Regular clip art is given as well as
photographs and illustrations. Good site
to find weird and unusual topics and the best part is; it’s all free!

Animation is the name of the game of
this clipart site. Animated graphics are
available for you to download for free, but you can also personalize pictures
to suit your needs. You can change
color, size, position, and motion of the graphics available. One downsize is that not all of the graphics
are free.

Google
is an excellent search engine to find particular websites, but it is also a
very worthy tool to find images. You can
search for virtually any type of picture and you will be provided with a wide
range of pictures, from computer generated to actual photographs, and the
website they appear on. This is
testament of the flexibility of Google.

This is an excellent site to visit if you
are looking for photographs of nature, which is the specialty of this site. Unfortunately, not many other pictures are
available besides ones found in nature. But
on the upper hand, the pictures are gorgeous and free!

This website has free clip art, but the
hard part is finding it. Things are not
grouped by categories but instead by pages. One plus is that the page contains a lot of
links to other clip art sites. I wouldn’t
recommend visiting this site if you have a specific idea of what image you want
to find.
