Buddhist Clip-art
I'm trying to collect (hint, hint!) and make available Buddhist and Buddhism-related graphics that you can use to express the Dharma on your website. Welcome to anything you can use, thanks for anything you can send me the URL for. If more experienced people can remove the white from the background on some of these, please do and let me know where to find the results.
