Welcome to the new utility, e-card archives! Weve designed the
archives withyou, the busy graphic designer, in mind. The e-card
archives will be accessible from themainframe at company
headquarters; you may access from your workstation, or remotelyfrom
your laptop. The images from the past e-card files have been
digitized, andmetadata has been created for each image. These
images have been arranged in ahierarchical faceted taxonomy, with
hierarchical notation to facilitate browse and searchfunctions. You
may browse by category, such as a specific holiday or event. You
may usethe search function, and pull up cards with a predominant
color, or color combination,such as green for St. Patricks Day, or
orange and black, for Halloween. Specific imagesearches, such as
for ties and barbecue grills, may bring up Fathers Day e-cards
amongother masculine themed e-cards, or you may search specifically
for Fathers Day cards.You may also search by image, event, or mood.
We hope this new utility will assist you in mining the archives for
new ideas,identifying possible categories we havent yet addressed,
and re-vamping otherwisesuccessful ideas (such as redesigning
artwork for a card that was popular, but whoseartwork had become
dated). We look forward to seeing how you, the graphic
designprofessional, employ this utility. If you have any
suggestions, please get in touch withthe Creative Studio Knowledge
Architect; improvement is always possible, and we arededicated to
making your work more pleasant and productive.
