Hi,

I've found a pastel clipart collection that I love but cannot find the rest
of it despite the hours and hours I've searched. I'm hoping someone out
there likes the same clips and can tell me the keywords to find the rest of
them.

If you run a search on "umbrella" and limit it to clipart it comes up in the
9th row and the 3rd one over. It's an orange umbrella with a light blue
background. All the clipart in this collection follows the same theme
(drawn with a pencil and with a shaded background) so if you find one you'll
recognize all the rest.

The collection does use consecutive filenames/numbers so here's a brief
description of what I have found.

CGA82.jpg Snowman with broom

j0382558.jpg Lantern
j0382559.jpg Cupid
j0382560.jpg Top hat with clover
j0382561.jpg Easter Eggs in Basket
j0382562.jpg Bible
j0382563.jpg Witch on broom
j0382564.jpg Haunted house
j0382565.jpg Birthday cake
j0382566.jpg Balloons
j0382567.jpg Wedding rings on a pillow
j0382568.jpg Ice Skates
j0382569.jpg Hot air balloon

j0382571.jpg Telephone poles/lines
j0382572.jpg ??
j0382573.jpg School bus
j0382574.jpg 3 Books
j0382575.jpg Microscope
j0382576.jpg Bookworm
j0382577.jpg Graduation Cap & Diploma
j0382578.jpg Schoolhouse
j0382579.jpg Airplane
j0382580.jpg American Flag
j0382581.jpg Bridge over a brook
j0382582.jpg Computer mouse
j0382583.jpg Eiffel Tower
j0382584.jpg Computer
j0382585.jpg House
j0382586.jpg Fireworks

j0382590.jpg Bird on branch
j0382591.jpg Stop Light
j0382592.jpg Arrow in Target
j0382593.jpg Cup of Coffee on table
j0382594.jpg Palm Tree
j0382595.jpg Piano
j0382596.jpg Paint Palette
j0382597.jpg ??
j0382598.jpg ??
j0382599.jpg ??
j0382600.jpg ??
j0382601.jpg ??
j0382602.jpg ??
j0382603.jpg ??
j0382604.jpg ??
j0382605.jpg ??
j0382606.jpg ??
j0382607.jpg ??
j0382608.jpg Eggs in a Nest
j0382609.jpg ??
j0382610.jpg ??
j0382611.jpg Piggy Bank (may not be from same collection as it's slightly
different)
j0382612.jpg ??

The next piece of clipart I have starts with:

j0387155.jpg Christmas Tree
j0387156.jpg ??
j0387157.jpg Chinese Dragon
j0387158.jpg Piggy Bank
j0387159.jpg Globe
j0387160.jpg Dove
j0387161.jpg Coffee and Muffin
j0387162.jpg Teapot and cup
j0387163.jpg Top hat and gloves
j0387164.jpg Woman's hat & sunglasses
j0387165.jpg Cake with cherry on top
j0387166.jpg Christmas candle
j0387167.jpg Presents (2, Red & Green)
j0387168.jpg Christmas Wreath
j0387169.jpg Grandfather Clock
j0387170.jpg Red Rose & Letter
j0387171.jpg Bouquet of 3 Roses
j0387172.jpg Presents, Green & Yellow-Striped
j0387173.jpg Wedding Cake
j0387174.jpg Gold Bells with Blue Ribbon
j0387175.jpg Wedding Bouquet of Red Roses
j0387176.jpg Rocking Horse
j0387177.jpg Child's Pram/Carriage
j0387178.jpg Umbrella

Ideally someone from Microsoft could check their server and point me towards
the remaining files but I'm not sure if that's possible. So, I'm really
hoping someone loves this collection as I do and have found the remaining
files. Because at this point, I've been searching so long it would be far
more accurate to say days instead of hours! :)

Thanks,

Christine

I'm beginning to think I have misunderstood
your request...maybe I'm searching for files
you have already found?

You have to assume the style number (1294) Microsoft uses for this collection is
the only images they intend to feature for download.
You might try http://www.nvtech.com/ they have similar type illustrations. Over
the years Microsoft has used various venders for the clipart. You could search
through those venders. Look at left pane on the Office site for Partner Sites.

Hi,

Thank you for your answers. I didn't realize I could search for a style #.
I usually add to my basket from the main screen and generally don't preview
the clipart which is where the style # was. I guess you were right about the
other part too, as I only found 5 others after searching using the style
number. However, I was able to find a lot more of my other collections.

As far as the file number, I had tried searching before using it but I guess
the key is to leave off the file extension (.jpg) and then it works.

I wasn't able to use the website you suggested as I got an error message.

But I did find what I wanted and more so thanks very much for that!

Christine
