[Clipart] help us submit more cliparts!!!

[Jon Phillips]

Also, since our server is in the USA, and we take precautions and provide
delete mechanisms, we have the DMCA safe harbor provisions and a 24-72 hour
window if we are ever served a DMCA take-down or cease and desist, to comply
or issue a counter-challenge. So, its great and we should contine to be
vigilant in removing bad cliparts, but we should not be afraid of running
our awesome project.
