I'm interested in purchasing some black and white vector art of skylines of the major metropolitan areas in North America. Is anyone aware of such a collection?

In addition to this, I'm in immediate need of a St. Louis skyline.

I was thinking I had seen some skylines in the Corel X3 collection, but I assume you have already looked there.

I looked through a couple of Corel collections that I had. They aren't indexed very well, so it is possible that I missed them while flippinig through.

Dave,

How about these?

This isn't a skyline but might be something you'll want to keep in your file.

There are a few in the Corel X3 clipart, and maybe in older ones too. Look in the "Travel" section of the clipart. There is a St. Louis (X3008770).

Dave,

Thank you! I found one that I was able to vectorize and incorporate into my design. The project has been completed and is out the door.

I'll keep the Corel graphics in mind for future projects. I'm going to continue to search for a collection.

Hi Dave,

This is all I could find in Corel.

Ed,

That appears to be a far-from-authentic skyline with an arch image. I appreciate the effort.

What has the weather been like for you and Kathy in the UP of Michigan, or dare I ask? We'd all love to see pictures.

Attending college in central Michigan with lake-effect snows is just a small sampling of the weather you are getting this time of year.

Do you market to the engraved snow shovel market? I heard northern Michingan residents don't wear dog tags, they just use engraved snow shovels in case they get lost in a snow drift while digging out. :P

I went to school in the UP (upper peninsula) of Michigan. Actually, the school (Michigan Technological University) is in the middle of the Keewanaw peninsula which sticks out into Lake Superior. You talk about lake effect snow. We had over 350" (yes, 350 inches) my freshman year. It snowed every day for about a month. They have to truck the snow off campus for fear that it will flood the campus.

I now live in the south and haven't seen snow for several years. I don't miss it a bit.
