now that i did the first phase of the job, they have ended communication despite me delivering solid work in a timely matter things that their ad-agency couldn't do alone. these sorts of situations are also looked over in the clip art discussions.

anyone that thinks they're too good for clip art is just doing something different than i am.

i have a lot of pride and confidence in my illustration work. sometimes, there just isn't time. sometimes, you're delivering on a job that is outside your range of illustration, but you know you can still provide something completely on-target for your client without flinching with the use of your clip art supplies.

it's no different than any of my other resources. i draw like a designer. i figure out what i need and then put it into the appropriate context. without my background in design, i'd fail.

but there're also some negatives that can come with stocks.
people who took them for granted.
it could limit their creativity,
and once in a while you can see some things that're similar to one another, that is IF they're using the same stock, for granted, without making any modifications on it or just do the design as it is. I for one saw some cases already, here. and that is one of the downsides of using stock artworks.

well, to sum it up, I'm totally with using stocks, but one should never take things for granted, and use these amazing stocks along WITH their creativity as well.

and I want to thank all stock makers and providers wherever you are :D

you've done so much and helped sooo much saving us time and sometimes gave inspirations on my and other's designs :D

cheers

To me, stock vectors are a way for me to make things the way a composer might make music: I don't have to be able to play the instrument, just know how it will add to the scene I want to create.

I like to think it's my own work but I can understand why people might go “oh” when I tell them its stock vectors. I think if you have the ability to draw things equivalent or better than Go Media vectors, then there is little need to use them: maybe inspiration? But I don't see the harm in using it due to time restrictions.
