Images range from lineups in Russia and rare South American museum artifacts to Easter Island monuments and Japanese panoramas. This beautiful and exotic collection is widely recognized as one of the finest values for photo images in the global market.

Both programs are mixed-media cataloguing, browsing and retrieval tools, which allow you to quickly browse through a visual gallery or textual list of all files or find just the images you want by specifying keywords, file types, filenames or volumes. All the images are annotated with short descriptions identifying the subject content and/or the location. All the images are cross-referenced by 22 major categories/themes. Some images may apply to more than one category. The number of images per category are: Cities 75 Animals 141 Food 38 People 488 Backgrnd./Texture 83 Plants 186 Sports 84 Ruins 485 Artifacts 147 Panoramas 225 Buildings 959 Mood Shots 80 Icons, Great 82 Transportation 127 South America 319 North America 570 Europe 755 Pacific Rim 555 Asia 333 Middle East 291 Relics 146 Religion 358 South Atlantic 315 All images are in uncompressed TIFF format using the universal ISO 9660 standard for CD-ROM. This permits any CD-ROM disc in the WorldBank Collection to be read by Macintosh or MS-DOS-compatible computers and many Unix platforms. It also means all these images are also importable by almost all image-handling applications available in those same computing environments. The 24 CD's are divided into two editions. Edition 1 has the first half of the images (1,500 or so, countries Argentina through first half of Hong Kong) and edition 2 has the second half (second half of Hong Kong through United States). Each image is 32-bit, CMYK (ie. already color-separated), color-corrected, uncompressed TIFF, 300 dpi giving a 150 line screen. Each Edition retails for US $499.00 (Cdn. $650 each) or US $998 (Cdn. $1,300) for the full high resolution set of 24 CD's. The WorldBank is packaged in handsome protective CD wallets. The developer of the wallet states the liner of each pocket in the wallet is comprised of a patented material that lifts minute particles away from the CD each time it is placed into the pocket, thus providing a measure of added protection for each CD. The Collection is also accompanied by six 40" x 28" full-color posters which have been further color-categorized so that individual images appear on the posters in the same order they appear on each color-coded CD - all to maximize easy reference.
