[thelist] *Good* clip art/icons/illustrations CD or web site

[aardvark]

i can understand ditching the Corel clip-art, much of it is pretty 
bad... but if you've already been through Artville, and possibly 
others, and maybe even done a dingbat search as well, it sounds 
like you ultimately have two options left:

- make your own through drawing it yourself or pieceing together 
elements from the other sets...

- hire a professional illustrator...

with so many stock houses and so much variety, it sounds like 
you have a very particular thing you are looking for...  i can give you 
some names of locals i like (like http://inkwellstudios.com/, for 
example), or you can even start the trek at:
