There are numerous sites to locate clip art on the Internet. To find clip art it is as simple as going to a search engine, such as Metacrawler --

http://www.go2net.com/search.html

Type in the words "free clip art" , click in the button by "phrase" and click on Search.

You will get a listing of many sites found with the phrase "clip art" in the title.

Be careful. If you click on "any" or "all" you will get a listing of any site that has the word clip or art in it. You will have to go through many listings to find sites worth using.

When you get to this listing, read the titles and descriptions. If you wish to go to that site, move the arrow on top of the underlined blue writing and click one time. Your browser will take you to that site. You may have to wait. Be patient. These sites contain pictures. They may take some time to appear.

When you get to a site that has pictures, be sure to read the "terms of usage" or any instructions for using the graphics on that site. The creator may request that you link to the page if you use the pictures, or he/she may give you permission to use the pictures however you wish. Please abide by what they ask. This is Internet courtesy.

If you find a picture/graphic you want to use, the simplest method is to copy the image and paste into your document, scrapbook or into a Library in AppleWorks. Here are the directions to do that: (It's so easy!)

  1. Click and hold the mouse on the picture.

     

  2. A pop-up menu will appear.

     

  3. Slide mouse to Copy this Image and let go.

     

  4. The image has been copied to the clipboard.

Now you are able to "paste" the image where you want it.

If you choose Save this image as... , a save screen will appear and you may save the picture as a gif, or jpg (these are image formats) on your desktop, or wherever you choose, and use them later.
