Charles Maxwell     http://www.underwatervideo.co.za
  • ABOUT A Emmy award-winning underwater cameraman who has done work for the BBC, Discovery Channel, National Geographic and others. I discovered his work by researching the origin of the much-publicized " Shark attacks helicopter " fake news story image that was created using one of his photographs. [Thumbnail below, click image to see the full-sized image within the WPClipart collection.]



     His website includes examples of both video and still photography. Mr. Maxwell was quite pragmatic when asked about the use of the image in WPClipart, noting that the faked image had brought him a lot of publicity. He even agreed to let us use something else of his in the collection. So below is an image I am sure will be popular:


    Visit his site for these and many other images, along with very cool anecdotes describing what was going on while he photographed: http://www.underwatervideo.co.za/image-library/pics.asp



Kathleen Peirce
  • She wrote: I recently started a clipart website that is a collection of my vector-based drawings. I provide PDF, WMF and PNG versions of all of the drawings. The drawings on my website are royalty-free, though I do include a Creative Commons 3.0 license -- basically the drawings are free to use and share as long as they stay free to use and share - and any restrictions in the license can be waived by me.
     If you care to include this in your collection, you would have my permission to distribute it as you see fit, with no restrictions. You do not need to directly attribute this drawing to me, but a link to my website would be really nice:

  • Kathleen donated the image of George Washington Carver

  • . . . and I talked her into letting me use another from her collection, because her use of colors and shading -- while keeping the tonal range one that is both bold and printable -- really impressed me on several of the images she has on her site. She has some truly exceptional images, including the one I asked for:


    You can view and use the full-sized girl_jumprope.png, now at the top of the recreation section.


Graeme Rainsbury
  • He has several photos which can be seen at stock.xchng:

  • He wrote: "These are Eastern grey kangaroos that are usually found in or near bushland, not out on the plains."

  • Scaled-down reproduction (original was much larger, detailed and atmospheric) is on animals/K/kangaroo and is named "kangaroo_graemes".




Lauren Ruiz
  • She is an artist who creates works under a CC license, but donated some things to us here at WPClipart. . . . always appreciated. You can view some of her work at her site at:
    laurenlace.com

    Among the works on her site (remember, these are CC licensed, not public domain as her donations here) -- in her graphics section the "green/orange flowers" is an excellent header, and in Illustrations -- "I Like Candi" (what can I say . . .)

  • I have not posted the donated art yet -- but will link them here once they are added. (Should be this week, she wrote me Saturday, 01/19/2008.)



Note to Artists
All donations/inquiries must be done via email psherman2001@gmail.com for the sake of security and editorial perusal. All finalized submissions have to be placed by you into the public domain. (I woud think most folks would submit one or two images from a collection or some low-res shots.) A list of and links to donated images will be shown on this page, as well as a link to the artist's homepage when available -- but accreditation alongside individual images in the collection is simply not feasible.

Link to me with the following graphic.
I will send you some visitors!
