Open ClipArt Library using album style layout (finally!)

Postby brynn » Mon May 31, 2010 10:13 am

Hi Friends,
OMG -- honestly I just browsed to Open ClipArt Library by accident, but hello! For so long I have actually avoided using the site because one could not view more than one image at a time. A search for "leaf" for example, would display a text list w/text links. And the only way to look at the images was one at a time.

But now it appears they have finished updating to more of an album style layout, where I see 30 images per page, and 5 to 6 pages of results. I am SO happy to finally be able to really see what the Open ClipArt Library has to offer!

I'm not sure who manages that site, but I just wanted to say THANK YOU VERY MUCH!! I think this will go so far in further promoting vector web graphics, and vector art in general. And also, congratulations on this accomplishment! I'm sure it must have been a lot of hard work. Off to browse.....

Another good thing is that the openclipartlibrary.org importer in Inkscape (File>Import From Open Clip Art Library) will now only import SVG's. Before it would switch between svg's and png's at random.

If they can work the same magic with the openfontlibrary.org website then it'll be awesome
