No more clip art? What will we do now? Microsoft will offer a Creative Commons - default Bing search instead. Tom Kuhlmann writes, "dropping clip art is probably a good thing for course designers. It forces us to be more intentional about the graphics we use in our courses. It also puts some pressure on organizations to finally commit some of their training budgets to graphic and visual design resources." But Creative Commons users who Freaked out when Yahoo started selling their photos had better prepare themselves for additional surprises. Meanwhile, Kuhlmann writes, "you'll need to verify that the images you use via the Creative Commons search can be used for commercial work."
