  Hello, Frenchfrog,
  I�m Rosine, a French member like you. I�m quite new on this site and I find it very enjoyable. I particularly love YOUR contributions because they include a lot of pictures, That�s why they are so successful, I think!
 Would you please give me the addresses of SOME of the sites you get your illustrations from . I  do hope it�s not a secret!!!
I thank you in advance! Regards.

Hi, Rosine!
 
I almost missed your post!
 
I don�t know what kind of pictures you are looking for...
You can dowload some of them from Microsoft (some are really nice): http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/clipart/FX101321031033.aspx?pid=CL100570201033 (type a keyword + "Search" and then choose "clipart" on the left)
 
See also this post (http://www.eslprintables.com/forum/topic.asp?id=346&page=2), you will get some information. You will see that using cliparts / pictures can become a very hot issue!!! We all know that we should always ask permission to use a picture, but we don�t always do it, do we? (That was the point of my answer in that post) I always feel guilty when I use pictures, and as you have seen I use quite a lot of them!! Try not to scan whole pictures from French textbooks, even though it is very tempting! I scanned bits of pictures a few times (because I could not find any good cliparts to illustrate what I wanted to say), but I no longer do that.

     Hello, Frenchfrog,

  Thank you very much for your reply. I was away from my keyboard  these last days, that�s why I didn�t send you a post earlier ! .  I�ve looked at all your contributions and I must say they are very attractive! I think it must take a lot of time   inserting all the pictures, but it�s worthwhile !
 Kind regards.
