Fair enough. Reasonably well argued.
They are "intended" for adults, as indicated by the words.

Are you on the Mailing list? Subscription page 
<http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/clipart> if you want it.
And what is your OCAL username? I'd like to see if I can give you 
Librarian status.

Cheers
