 Two really good places to get loads of free pictures and clip art we usually go to are:

  • Microsoft.com - search for clip art, download it on your favourites in your computer and off you go!  www.microsoft.com 
  • Desktopnexus.com - this is a website that has screen savers - but you can save the images in your desktop and use them for presentations, blogs, wikis and everything else. http://www.desktopnexus.com/

    We may be able to explore a few more pieces during our sessions. Check Valeria's wikispaces place for more resources: they are all free!
