Customer Reviews

"Full Color" is a Misleading Description1
There are 291 designs on this CD-ROM. The cover says it has "Full Color Electronic Designs." Of the 291 designs, only 40 are full color! Of those 40 color designs, about 10 look like they are scans of carpets. The rest are black and white graphics. Of the black and white, 24 are frames, 27 are pictures, & 200 are letters of the alphabet. Overall, you aren't getting what you pay for, even at the low Amazon price.

Not For Everyone2
All of Dover's books are beautiful. However, because the images are skewed, there is no repeat pattern.

beautiful images which print very well5
This book includes a selection of black & white picture frames in both narrow and wide styles. The narrow ones have turned out to be very useful for innermost frames of pictures and other images, then surrounded by color frames. I've even used the black & white picture images for hand-coloring. But the color images in this book are magnificent, and they print exactly as well as one would hope. This dover collection is a credit to them.
