 Fabulous tool July 6, 2008
Creative One (Atlantis, FL)
The bulk of my projects as a freelance graphic designer is designing books for national publication. This collection is a treasure trove of images -- I can always find just the right graphic for my bookblock layouts. All 5 discs operate perfectly and I really love the 1800+ page image library catalog. It's very well indexed so I don't have to spend a lot of time browsing through the discs to find what I'm looking for. It has already paid for itself many times over, both in time and cost.
 Explosion of Crap June 20, 2008
M. L. Hickman (saint paul, mn)
This is horribly misleading. Not only did 3 of the DVDs not load (just spun and spun), but the two that did gave me a glimpse of the "art" they claim to be so great and high quality. The clip art is amateurish, the background images are ... ugh, they're just gross. And the photography is a complete joke. It's all circa 1970s and 80s, the quality is very poor. They appear to be scanned in and have the quality of a shaky grandmother's album. And high quality? Ha! The images not only are lo-res (180 dpi), but they are also small in size (4x5")! This is a complete and utter joke. Don't bother.
 A waste of money February 15, 2008

As a graphic designer, I'm always looking for tools like this. When I bought this for our shop, we were planning on using the icons for quick placement in our statement designs. We also looked forward to using the fonts and other clip art eps features for various quicky projects. Unfortunately, the interface is difficult to use, and loading the CDs is tedious.
The stock photos are worthless. I have yet to use one of their 1970s photos for anything other than a good laugh.
The font database has nothing usable.
Overall, this was a waste of $100. Our shop has used it probably half a dozen times, and I don't imagine we'll use it much from here forward.
Birthday gift for daughter August 26, 2007

My daughter works as a computer graphic's artist as her profession. Because of this I found out she wanted the Art Explosion 750,000 For MAC as an adjunct for her job. So I ordered one as a birthday gift.
Since we don't live near to one another I had it shipped as a birthday gift to her home.
Only weeks later did I find out that part of the delivery came through damaged, and she was then dealing to have the problem rectified!
I asked if she wanted me as purchaser to follow up, but she told me she would deal with it.
I'm sure she will eventually get satisfaction either from Amazon or whomever is eventually responsible.
Art Expolosion 750,000 Expolded May 30, 2007
Jason Corey Bend Pak Inc. (Los Angeles, CA)
Sure Art Explosion has nifty stock images that can help in a pinch with small graphic solutions, but what to do with 48 CDs that come shrink-wrapped on a spindle with no lid? In the past the CDs would come supplied with a carrying case. So don't expect one to come with this collection or to get a response from Nova even though they advertise a money back guarantee.
