Image Searching Tips
If the URLs above don’t give you what you need, try the following tricks that will help you search for images:
* If you need free holiday clipart, add “free” as part of your search query. Why go through pages of images you have to pay for if you don’t intend to buy them? This can cut your searching time by more than half.
* If you want a specific type of free clip art images, indicate that. As an example, enter “free Christmas holly clip art” if that’s what you need. That will help Bing or the other search engines to serve up more helpful results and eliminate the need to comb through unwanted images.
* Use image-search engines. Each major search engine has an image search feature, and using them will exclude even more pages you don’t need to see. You can also see the images before you even click, so this is the biggest time-saver of all.
