Graphics Archives on the Internet

Graphics archives can be found on dozens of host computers around the world. With the help of Netscape & Mosaic, or an ftp program, you can connect to them and download software that people have contributed as either Shareware or Freeware. Likewise, there are many web and ftp sites that store a large variety of images and movies, from just about anywhere you can think of. The resources that can be found on the internet are vast, and if you search hard enough, you may find more than you ever hoped for.
