This atrwork was provided with only one file per work of
art as I believe that the desk top publisher wants quality
more than quantity. Instead of supplying you with a great
number of poor resolution drawings, the emphasis here is
to supply you with high quality artwork that will look
professional when incorporated into your published material.
These 93 PCX format files are grouped in six categories
to help you in sorting them.
ANIMALS is a small group of six files as follows:
Dove; 2 Eagles; Fish on a Stringer; A Lone Fish; and
a Mare and Her Colt.
MUSICAL is a small group of five files as follows:
Grand Piano; Banjo; Guitar; Hunting Horn; Trumpet
UTILITY is a group of nineteen files consisting of a
variety of items such as:
Pointing Hands (4); Compasses (2); Arrows (North &
South); United Way Logo; US Flag; Bluecross Logo;
Auction (2); Bibles (2); Boy Scout Logo (2); and
several other files.
OBJECTS contains a variety of things including:
Candlesticks; Clocks; Checkbook; Telephone; Crown;
Pitcher; Key; Boxing Glove; Moneybag; Calculator;
Palmtree; Dice; Wheat Stalks; Roadblock and more.
SCENES offers 32 files of various scenery pictures. Most
are too hard to describe here, but include:
Boats; Mountains; A Well; A Stormy Sea; An Old Castle;
A Waterfall; Country Barns; Buildings; NY City
Skyline; Hot Air Baloon; Lighthouse and many more.
PEOPLE is a weak group of files including:
A Poor Man in a Doorway; A Man in a Slum; A Sick Man;
A Cleancut Man; People at a Picnic Table.
All of these files should print out fine reguardless of
how you resize the picture EXCEPT many of SCENES artwork.
Much of the SCENES artwork employs the use of patterns
in shading to obtain grayscales that can be printed on
a dot matrix printer. If you resize the picture without
maintaining its aspect ratio, the patterns are destroyed
often resulting in tartan "bands". Many Desk Top
Publishing (DTP) programs manuals discuss ways to avoid
banding effects by maintaining the aspect ratio and by
cropping the picture.
All of the SCENES artwork will print out beautifully if
you size the initial frame or box at 3.56 inches wide
before importing the picture. The height seems to make
less difference (I usually use about 2.5 inches). Read
up on the scaling and cropping features of your DTP
program to make the most out of the SCENES artwork. If
you have any suggestions that would make this artwork
easier to handle, please let me know so I can add the
information to this disk.
