Unfortunately, the Open Clip Art Library has not been updated for some time, 
so I can't put a newer version on the DVD :( My guess is that it is that 
(Open Clip Art) which causes the problems for some, since all the images are 
either PNG or vector. I've thought about converting them to a more 
Windows-friendly format, but time (and not knowing all the ins and outs of 
the GIMP) has prevented it so far.

The templates should work, I'd be quite surprised if they didn't, since they 
are OO.o specific, not OS reliant.
