I'm working on a post card in Adobe Indesign, and I want to have borders, or corners with an art nouveauish appeal. Things like this:

https://www.istockphoto.com/file_thumbview_approve/3184383/2/istockphoto_3184383-art-nouveau-border.jpg

Does anybody know of a site that offers stuff like this for FREE? And/or in vector graphic form for scalability? Maybe someone can make me something?

kinda i guess you can make shapes and lines without rastering and export as eps ... but no svg (afaik)

I use http://www.inkscape.org/ (of course you can always get illustrator)

my typical path -- .svg -> inkscape -> export .png -> use in photoshop

as a matter of fact, I DO have Illustrator. Never used it though. But if thats the program for making vector graphics I should start playing around with it. I didn't find much I could use from that site, I downloaded a few floral patterns and borders sadly nothing perfect though

you cant make vector art in photoshop(pixel based)... illustrator is the vector creating king...

I have a bunch of vector flourishes... I'll zip a few up and upload to filefront if you want?
