The fact that there are people out there who will put hours of work into the creation of a tool for others to use freely, without payment, really raises my opinion of humankind as a whole.Īnd clip art must be particularly difficult to give up, because I know how much love and work goes into any kind of art. I actually just saw a short documentary on the open source movement and I find the whole concept really wonderful. But there are enough images in the public domain now, that there are plenty of people to aggregate them into websites of public domain images for their own ends.
Sometimes people put up free clip art so that they can draw visitors to their site, to either make money from ads, or in order to sell them something else.Ĭlip art isn't a great way to do that if you are making it yourself, however, since it does take a fair amount of time to make something worth giving away. But that's not always the case with public domain work. June 29, - Well, it's definitely true that there are a lot of people out there doing very sophisticated work with no expectation of payment. I don't really care about the money at all, it's just nice to know that people can use my work and that it might help someone, somewhere.
It actually gets visited quite a lot, to my surprise, but I only make a few cents a week off the ads. I made an online clip art gallery and posted them there for a while, slapped a couple of ads on there and that was that. So, I decided I would just give them away for free, because I do believe in the open source movement. You really need a set of images to do that. I liked the pieces but they weren't really good enough to be put into a portfolio or sold anywhere. A while ago I realized that I had a bunch of old bits of clip art that I had created while practicing with Coral Draw and other programs. June 30, - Well, I do that, I guess, although it's certainly not for the money.
