Watermarks and Clip Art

I have Word 2007 - the one with all commands on "ribbons". The Watermark
feature is located under Page Layout in this version and I have not been able
to get to the location of the Clip Art files when I go to select a picture to
use (the ones I want are in a folder titled My Collections/Downloaded Clips -
which I have not been able to find through the Watermark feature). I've come
up with a work-around - I bring the clip art into Publisher, format it the
way I want, then save it as a PNG file. Then I go back to Word and I am able
to get to that file through the Watermark options. Takes a little longer,
but gets the job done. Thanks for the help
