[Clipart] 30K! and ready to launch!!!

[Jarod Russel]

Alright I will give my 0.2 cents to this. I think Jon had good 
intentions, but I do not see vectorized photographs as something 
openclipart should include in the collection. I know there is a why to 
make vectorized photographs look like the original or almost like it. 
Those vectorized images take to much away from the original and it 
simply doesn't look good (sorry jon).

I also see people in some of those photographs. I really hope that is 
you Jon or at least somebody you got a model release signed from. If not 
you better write in your description down that no model release was 
obtained. You simply infringe this peoples privacy rights.

Another thing I noticed is the fact that I click on the thumbnail or svg 
button and get a xml file instead of the vectorized image. Don't know 
what the problem is and it seems to happen with your images only.
