Welcome
to 2015.
Check
out this free download of Picto- selector. Stored on it are many of
the free image sets I have mentioned previously, including Sclera, Mulberry St,
and others. Here they are all in one place. They are easy to
locate and compare with each other. It has been developed in Scandinavia,
and is available in many different languages if you need them.
The website says “The download contains over 28000 pictos (images)
translated to English, Dutch, German, French, Danish, Spanish,
Brazilian and Italian. (Some pictos are also translated to Arabic,
Swedish, Portuguese and Indonesian).” It
can be used by multiple users.
This
image storage selector can help you locate all your images of similar meanings,
eg: type in "happy, and a range of different images from the various sets
of this concept are available, If you have Boardmaker also, you can import
these new images you regularly use, into the one storage system.
The
image selector will also find words that have another word in it, eg: law,
showed me a range of images for "law ", but also "lawn
mower," "lawn" etc.
You
can modify the images but this is limited. However, a couple of good
functions are
-
remove the border;
-
remove the word from underneath the image or change the word (and/or place
it in a different place as part of the image);
-
have access to search function in a different language;
- easily
add "no good" (red cross) good/right (green tick) over an image.
You
could use this free download as a beginning point of images, or if you have a
range of other image sets, use as possible alternatives.
You
can also upload photos you use regularly into Picto- selector. This is particularly
useful when you cannot access Boardmaker or other image storage/selector
systems.
When
uploading the Picto-selector, check the copyright usage, although it does have
creative commons copyright, it also asks you to acknowledge the source of your images.
Let
me know your thoughts about this image storer, and the extra images you can use.
