Actually no, you posted in a non-Xara and non-Artwork related forum..
Never mind, I have moved the thread ;)
Re: Greedy for clip art, etc
Hi Rikk
I still use clipart from the Art Explosion collection I purchased 10 years ago or so. It's can be useful even though the wmf format is old and clunky, and the images may not be easy to modify.
These days, I'm more likely to go to a microstock site (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microstock_photography). Many of them offer vector images in addition to photos. The standard vector format is eps. Typically, these images are easier to modify than the old wmfs.
Clipart collections such as Art Explosion are still available. Just google (or yahoo, or whatever you do to search the web :)), look at the examples and see if they're what you're looking for. What one person thinks is a great collection may not look that way to someone else.

How about iStockphoto.com? Their stuff isn't free, but they do have vector clip art.
Re: Greedy for clip art, etc
I use a lot of stuff from istock. Some of the other microstock sites are cheaper. It also helps to have some alternatives when istock doesn't have what you need.
Re: Greedy for clip art, etc
You could try clipart.com It is a subscription based service, that has millions of clipart, photos, sounds, and even fonts. Most of the eps files import into Xtreme without any problem, and if you do come across the odd one that won't work there is always a selection of other file types.
