Welcome to ClipArts.Net
A website on design resources.
Clipart is a useful tool for a variety of
important projects, ranging from power point presentations
or designing websites to designing gift
certificates or gift cards and even completing arts and
crafts activities. Basically, clipart can be defined as any
already created picture or image used as illustration. It
can be electronic but is also often used in print form.
Sometimes clipart is drawn by hand, and other times it is
created over the computer. No matter where it is created or
whether it ends up being used online or in print, today's
clipart is almost exclusively copied and distributed
electronically.
Clipart has expanded over the
past decade, and now is categorized in a more accurate and
thorough manner than in years past. Today's clipart falls
into categories based on format, artistic style, type of
image portrayed, medium through which is created
(distinguishing whether clipart is illustrated by hand or on
the computer), medium of the clipart itself (whether it is
turned into a print version or electronic version), and how
the clipart is marketed and distributed following its
production.
There are two main clipart formats
for clipart files. The first type is known as bitmap, a name
that refers to a picture made up of an array of pixels. One
way to think of bitmap is picturing the "airbrush"
tool that disperses color in the program Paint. When you use
airbrush, you are not creating a geometric shape or
following any type of pattern whatsoever.
The
other data type, vector art, uses mathematically based lines
and geometric shapes to make images. This is like Paint's
line tool or the polygon tool found on the program.
Clipart is often perceived as "free," but
this isn't always true. Public domain clipart can be used
and distributed for no cost, but distributing royalty-free
or rights managed clipart without paying for the
rights may be not allowed.
