I have used dicer and it does a nice job. =20
I would be wary of ANY program or search that "will scavenge the Net for =
images". The files returned are often copyrighted and not freely =
available for your use. (I speak from experience, I had one stolen that =
way. Thief told me "I used xyz.com 's graphics search." He thought that =
gave him a right to it!!) =20
This brings up one more thought. To help avoid having your graphics =
found by the engines don't name them common words. Maybe you made a =
blackcat.gif - try naming blktac.gif or ct-blk.gif. Develop a system =
that works for you. It also doesn't hurt to put graphics in separate =
directories and ban access to graphics directories in your robots.txt =
file.
Mousily yours,
MomJ - the mouse with the 5 foot tail!
