If you download a clip from the Design Gallery Live site on the World
Wide Web, it is downloaded as a .cil (Clip Gallery Package) file. This article explains how to use these files.
If you have Internet access, you can connect to a special site on the
World Wide Web directly from Microsoft Clip Gallery. This site
contains additional clip art that you can download.
Here's what happens when you select a piece of clip art to download:
| • | Your Web browser copies a file to your Internet cache directory. This file has a .cil extension.
|
| • | Your Web browser runs the .cil file.
This expands the clip art file and copies it to the following folder:
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Artgalry\Downloaded Clips
|
| • | Clip Gallery registers the new clip and adds the information
about the clip to your primary .cag file.
|
NOTE: If you have Microsoft Clip Gallery, you can run a .cil file by
double-clicking it in Windows Explorer. If you think you have
downloaded a new clip but cannot find it in Clip Gallery, search
for files with a .cil extension, and then run the appropriate file by
double-clicking it.
