Clip art help

Discussion in 'Photoshop' started by ElementalDesigns, Aug 16, 2008.

    Hey,

    I do a lot of designing, and wondering if anyone knows a good site that offers free quality clip art and 100% free of copyright.

    I know there are a few, but I can't find them anymore.

    Please help/

    I would suggest designing your own clip art if you are wanting ALL rights to them. Every clip art site I've seen says FREE for non-commercial use & the designer retains ALL copyrights to it no matter what.

    As a designer myself, I do all my own elements, icons, etc.... Doing it this way also insures a perfect fit to the theme you are trying to match.

    Clip art sites were primarily designed for people that have absolutely "NO" design experience nor creativity.

    Just my 2 cents! :)

    Thanks, do you know any places where it would kind of give you the basics of creating your own clip art?

    Here's a few Free clipart sites (Designers still retain copyrights & they are more than likely all for non-commercial use):

    free-clipart.net
    1clipart.com
    freeanimatedclipart.com/freeclipart.html
    free-graphics.com
    aaaclipart.com
    free-clip-art.net

    Just to name a few & thousands more on the net.

    As far as how to design them, well, you're the designer, I'm sure you have a grasp on designing single elements to implement in larger designs. There are also thousands of Free online tutorials that will walk you through step by step processes of using different design softwares. You will need to specify the software you use & the type of design you want to create when searching google for them. (Example google search would be: Photoshop Rap singer tutorial)

    Good luck

    Search for vector stock on google. Some nice stuff you can use as clip art there. You often have to pay though.
