Web: www.smartdesigns.com
The Smart Designs Art System - What's It All About? Smart Designs is the industry's premier art system. Anyone that produces graphics relies on two basic technologies: Graphic Design Software and Digital Artwork (Clip Art). We combined both into an art system. With over 50 million users worldwide, we selected CorelDRAW as the engine for our system. If you are a beginner to CorelDRAW, you can immediately be successful with our system. If you are an advanced user of CorelDRAW, you can dramatically reduce both your production and desing time. We have made it possible for anyone to produce high quality custom graphics without the typical struggle. We'd have a great thing going if all we had was great graphics software, but this is only half the equation. The other half of the equation is our production-ready digital art. You simply cannot buy desktop publishing clip art with this kind of quality and attention to detail. Each one of our production-ready digital art CD-ROMs has set the industry standard in its category. We make the extra effort on each image to make sure that you don't have to spend tedious prodcution time preparing an image for output. No other professional design software on the planet is so tightly integrated with artwork. ETA members who purchase any Smart Designer software package will receive the Smart Concepts CD-ROM at no additional charge, a $150 value. Smart Concepts includes over 500 EPS product templates including illustrations of popular apparel and head wear.
