  Below is a list of what I have found on Simtel20.  There is quite a
bit more available there than just in the deskpub directory.  Chances are
that this isn't a complete list.

  PD:<MSDOS.DESKPUB> directory: ARTMART1.ARC, ARTMART2.ARC, 
ARTMART3.ARC, ARTMART4.ARC, IROC.ARC (.PCX format), and VNTURART.ARC - 
pictures in various graphics formats 
  PD:<MSDOS.MAC> directory:  MACBEST1.ARC and MACBEST2.ARC - pictures
in Macpaint .MAC format.
  PD:<MSDOS.WORDPERF> directory:  WP50ART1.ZIP, WP50ART2.ZIP, 
WP50ART3.ZIP, WP50ART4.ZIP, WP50ART5.ZIP, WP50ART6.ZIP, WP50ART7.ZIP, 
WPFREE3.ZIP, WPLOGOS.ZIP - all pictures in WordPerfect .WPG graphic 
format 
  PD:<MSDOS.VENTURA> directory:  GEMBRDRS.ARC (borders in .GEM format) 
and VP-ART1.ARC (.PCC format clip art).  There are also a variety of 
pictures (about a half dozen pics each) contained in the Ventura 
newsletters that you may want to take a look at. 

   I am always looking for more clip art.  If anyone knows of any that 
I have left out, please contact me or post it here. 
   Also, does anyone know of a program that will convert Word Perfect 
5.1 graphics into something accessible to MSDOS Ventura?  I have 
Hijaak v1.1, which will convert Word Perfect v5.0 and previous 
graphics, but wont do the new ones.  I would prefer to find a 
shareware or public domain program to do this, rather than having to 
buy the new version of Hijaak.  Thanks. 

                                        Pete
