Where can I buy clip art designed by the group known as Cliptomaniacs?

Here is some background information: There used to be a site at
http://www.doubleexposure.com that was selling several collections of
clip art. I loved their stuff and bought one of their sets, but since
then I've lost it in a hard drive crash. I tried to contact them, but
it seems they've gone out of business. The clip art was really high
quality, so I assume they must have sold their work to one of the
major clip art collections. I'm hoping somebody knows which one of
these has Cliptomaniacs clip art.

If you want to see examples of their work, go to the Internet Archive
and search for http://doubleexposure.com. Or, you can just go here:

The Internet Archive also has contact information:

CLIPTOART
401 King Edward Avenue,
Suite 200
Ottawa, Ontario
K1N9C9
Canada
TEL: (613) 232-3567
FAX: (613) 232-2055

I tried calling the number, but I got a recorded message from what
appears to be a law firm.

Thanks for any answers,

Trevor

P.S. This has nothing to do with the Australian TV show called
"Cliptomaniacs".

Good news Trevor!

I was unable to locate CliptoArt who were, at one point, located in
Ottawa, Canada according to the Appleworks Organizations page (scroll
down to "Other Resources"):
http://www.apple.com/appleworks/users.html

I did, however, locate Cliptomaniacs artwork!

I began my search by searching for Cliptomaniacs in Google and found
that they also once owned the domain name www.cliptoart.com and were
based out of Ottawa, Canada (which matched up with what you found).
Next I went to the Internet Archive (www.archive.org) and, while
browsing the www.cliptoart.com site, I noticed that the last page
indexed sent you to Art Today. I'm an Art Today member, and I'm
familiar with the fact that it is a large clipart site so I went
searching.

Once on the Art Today site (www.arttoday.com), I chose a few unusual
clipart images to search for from the ones located in the Internet
Archive for Cliptomaniacs
(http://web.archive.org/web/19990219220535/http://www.doubleexposure.com/main.html)
such as the cars, avocados, and olives. The results confirmed that
what appears to be Cliptomaniacs clipart is now available through Art
Today. Once I located one of their images, the vendor name is listed
as "GraphicCorp 3 - CLIPTO/FILES" and I was able to bring up all of
the artwork listed under that vendor name. It definitely matches the
clipart from Cliptomaniacs. The publisher is listed as Hemera
Technologies, so possibly they purchased the clipart from Double
Exposure, although I can find nothing to confirm that theory. Hemera
is headquartered in Ottawa, Ca as well - yet more evidence!

Hemera Technologies sells their clipart in huge collections so that
might be an option for you. I would recommend contacting them to see
if they can shed further light on which collection might contain the
clipart from Double Exposure.

The other option would be to sign up as a member of Art Today. They
offer memberships as small as one week for $7.95. Once you gain
membership access, here is the direct link to the artwork from Double
Exposure:

Here are some examples, so that you can confirm for yourself from the
free searches at Art Today (you can search for free...just not
download):

1) Go to this page on the Internet Archive and look at the Grandmother
image:
http://web.archive.org/web/19980625074310/www.doubleexposure.com/peop-01.html

2) Go to www.arttoday.com and search the clipart category for
"grandmother"

3) Skip ahead to page 5 (at least it was on page 5 for me) and find
the matching image.

You can do the same with "olives"  Search www.arttoday.com for
"olives" and image #3 will match the olives on this page:
http://web.archive.org/web/19980625075057/www.doubleexposure.com/food-05.html

Pinkish purple popsicle near the end of page 1 or top of page 2 in
search results for "popsicle" will match the one on this page:
http://web.archive.org/web/19980625075552/www.doubleexposure.com/food-03.html

I hope this is the clipart you are looking for. Thank you for a fun
search.

Fine piece of detective work. Don't why I didn't think of searching
for Cliptoart!

I was hoping to find a batch of Cliptomaniacs art in a bundle by
itself, but this is good enough. At least now I know it still exists,
even though it may be a little hard to extract.
