I'd also appreciate hearing about any other graphics web sites you
find useful or CD-ROM's that contain great graphics.
I've found some of the clip art CD-ROM's (MasterClips is one, I've also
used one called "Art Explosion," or somesuch) to be quite usable, as long
as you have a copy of Photoshop handy. ;{>}
I'd stay away from the photo CD-ROM's; they tend to be *way* too heavy for
web use.
Even some of the most trite clip art around can look impressive when
treated to a few minutes in Photoshop. (Have I mentioned that I love
Photoshop?)
Have fun,
