As is exlained in the link above, this forum is very helpful and sharing. However, some things aren't outs to share.
This particular set of clipart was designed by someone else and is licensed commercially. When you purchase a license, you are paying for your rights to use the files. Not ownership of the files and their copyright that you can give to someone else.
It's a common misconception, but it's really only fair to those people who work hard on those files to respect the work they've created. That's one reason we don't allow or encourage that type of file sharing here.
Members here often share their own original work they've created, and that's perfectly fine and encouraged. But if it's someone elses work, it's just not ours to share.
We're more than happy to help people find where they can buy their own license for specific files. Generaly speaking, it's usually pretty inexpensive to buy the rights to use a file. As a business, these are costs we should build into our product pricing or client billing.
