One of the most frequently asked questions that I get is where do I get my clipart from. As new people join Active Rain this is usually one of the questions they have. I know that it was one of my questions when I first joined Active Rain.

christmas clip art

After researching many terms of use agreements from many different clip art compares it was recommended by another blogger on Active Rain about 1 1/2 years ago to use Iclipart.

I used to spend hours searching online for just the right photo, get permission to use the photo or pay stockphotos for a photo. Well, the money adds up real fast when you are blogging as much as we blog.

It was a no brainer when I went to Iclipart. I did not even use the try it you'll like it trial. For less than $3.00 per month- well, do the math! It sure made blogging that much more fun and not as time consuming and even sparks posts to write just by looking at all their images. I am now on my second year subscription.

When Iclipart is on sale; you can not beat the price. Right now the subscription to Iclipart is only $29.99 for  a year. That is less than $3.00 per month! If you are buying photo stock photos you are spending more than $3.00 a month.

Iclipart is also a great gift to give to your agents, high school and college students that are into graphic design and parents who do a lot of volunteering and need to create flyers and online announcements.

You need to make sure your read the terms of use from any clipart that you want to use. Most of them will say that it is free but only for personal use. Blogging on Active Rain is not considered personal use. Free can become very expensive if you violate the terms of use.

Christmas and other holiday clipart is really popular right now. Use Clip Art for all your projects- look no further! Iclipart is safe to use, read the terms of use and you will see that you can use if for commercial purposes.

There are over 7.8 million images, photos, sounds, buttons, patterns and more to use on this site. It is very easy, one click dowloads in a variety of sizes. Here is a sampling of some of the fun clipart you can use:

Disclosure: I am an affiliate of Iclipart which means a make four bucks to nine bucks if you click on the links in this post and end up buying a subscription to Iclipart via my link in this post. Someone got upset and had a hissy fit because they found out that I made a couple of dollars because I turned them on to Iclipart. So now when I talk about it, I make the disclosure.

Honestly the things that people get upset over!

I will check into this - I purchase an occasional photo from iStockPhoto.com but only rarely.  I usually use Flickr.com's Creative Commons search making sure it's okay for commercial use.  I also use a lot of my own photography though it's not as crisp looking as the stock photos.

Karen- Flickr creative commons license is great and you can surely use the photos. The only thing is the time it takes to find just the right photo. The way iclipart has their site organized it is a snap to find and retrieve a photo or an image. I like their cartoony type and their objects, like stop signs and all that. If I am looking for a telephone, I get a telephone. Simple.

Katerina - thanks for the tip on iClipart. This will be invaluable to anyone who wants to use graphics other than those they might create and their own photos. Sometimes a photo just won't do.

Just because AR is free does not mean that we have to give it all away:) I lost 4 subscibers on the first post I wrote about IClipart. I don't even remember the lady's name who wrote a post in July of 2007 about IClipart. I used the link in her post hoping she would get an affiliate check for me signing up, because she told me about it! I did not even know her. I want everyone to make money.

Lisa- Thanks! I did not know I was one of your favorite bloggers:) I appreciate that a lot! I love Iclipart!

Mark and Patty- It is the best buy- I spend 29 per year and it goes a long way and is safe, they encourage commercial use! I like that! Their terms of use is very lenient! That is less than $2.50 per month! Just 2 photos from I Stock Photo would cost that much! Iclipart is unlimited use of over 7 million images that are like the ones above, photos, charecters, cartoony types, objects; you name it you will be able to find it on Iclipart.

I absolutley think this is the deal of my year! I am going on my second year of buying Iclipart and am so pleased. Plus it is SOOOO easy to download the photos and now you get to choose different sizes to download so you don't have to do all that resizing! What a time saver!

If you ever meet any one who does the embroidery on jackets and hats and such; they have a lot of those digital embroidery clipart too! I just noticed that the last time I was searching for something in their vast library.

Seriously though, the only reason I recommend Iclipart is because I use it and love it. This is my second year. I have never ever been dissappointed or let down by this company.

The copyright thing scares the heck out of me too so I read all the terms of service very closely and that is what I did with Iclipart. It is the best 29 bucks that I spend each year! Heck, that is cheaper than going out to dinner!
