South Seas Designs CD-ROM and Book

Melanesia, which includes New Guinea and numerous smaller islands on the South Seas, is rich with carved decorative art. Each island has adopted unique styles typical of their own peoples, creating an enormous wealth of diverse designs. This treasury of visually stunning native carvings is filled with authentic patterns that have been carved into wood, gourds, cocoanutshells, and tortoiseshells. From spirals, ""teeth,"" triangles, and zigzags to recognisably human figures, lizards, crocodiles, and birds, each page is an exciting discovery of exotic design. This book includes a CD-ROM containing 394 royalty-free images - 40 full-colour images saved in JPEG format and 354 black ewhite images scanned at 600 dpi and saved in six different formats (TIFF, PICT, EPS, BMP, as well as Internet-ready JPEG and GIF).
