Open Clip Art Library Release 0.18 Announcement
October 10, 2005 - Release 0.18 of Open Clip Art Library (http://www.openclipart.org), containing over 8000 SVG files, is now available for download and use.
The theme for this month was 'pets'. We sought to collect images for different breeds, appropriate for use by animal shelters.
For 0.19, due Nov 1st, the theme will be Halloween! This is your chance to send us your ghosts and goblins, bats, witches, and pumpkins! We'd also welcome printable templates for creating holiday decorations, usable in Inkscape, OpenOffice, Scribus, or other graphics applications.
Some of the highlights of this release:
* New top level categories 'science', 'electronics' * New subsections 'religion', 'astronomy', 'network', and more * Flags collection has been fleshed out / improved a bit more * Bunch of new signs/symbols * Lots of new vehicles, office, sports, music, and toys clipart
A lot of the previously 'unsorted' art has been sorted and moved into other categories, and a lot of duplicates removed. While much more work is required before the collection is perfect, with this release it should be much easier to locate the clip art you need.
Please download it directly from:
http://openclipart.org/downloads/0.18/openclipart-0.18-full.tar.bz2
or one of the other packages at:
http://openclipart.org/downloads/0.18/
The Open Clip Art Library (http://www.openclipart.org/) aims to create an archive of user contributed clip art that may be freely used. All graphics submitted to the project are placed into the Public Domain according to the Creative Commons Public Domain Declaration.

Current release features 8000 items. Previous release featured 5000 items.
Would you really appreciate 3000 links? :)

No, of course Alex.
But the ones in my desired section would be nice. I really don't know where are the modification. But if it is difficould to implement no problem, I could search new ones by myself.

to stay in touch with the latest additions is useful to take a look from time to time to http://openclipart.org/submissions.php
you can do a script to parse the page and generate a RSS feed with links to daily uploads, but the links are useful only for a few days, as the directory is cleaned at each release (monthly).

You could open it with 7Zip, or you could download the .zip variant of the archive from the same page from which you downloaded the .bz2 variant.

There are bunzip2 binaries for Windows over at http://gnuwin32.sf.net, available as zip files.
Lionel,
assuming you are responsible for cross-posting please don't it is not an appropriate way to issue requests for information.
please revisit: http://www.openclipart.org/downloads/ and click on the 'zip' links these are for use with windows. the bz2 files are for others.
