I use Google Images a lot. But it’s not good for specifying types of images, like clip art.  
I used to use [Ditto.com](http://ditto.com) but they cut back on all of their screening options and I now find them impossible to use.  
Most of my once-favorite font sites are now dead links.

Here’s my favorite fonts site:

I use these but some are better than others, as you might guess.

**CLIP ART**

[http://www.openclipart.org/](http://www.openclipart.org/)

> **[Public Domain Images](https://karenswhimsy.com/public_domain_images/)**
>
> Thousands of beautiful images gleaned from antique books, magazines, trade cards, Victorian scrap, and postcards. Free to use in your artistic endeavors.

You can also go to Google, Yahoo or AltaVista. Click on Images, and search for “free clip art” (with quote marks). You can also add to that whatever topic you are looking for, (ie, “free clip art”, dogs)

Always check the user rules, not all images on all “free” sites are free. I’ve found the ‘market’ changes, so, as a heavy user, I check back every 3 or 6 months.
