I guess I might try Pinterest. Though now they make you sign up to do much searching.

I bought wood gears "BigPrint" for $22 mainly to enlarge existing pictures to make templates, but I would guess that will precisely reduce. I don't know the technical term, but it allows me to easily white out the areas I don't want to get a sharper outline, saving ink. There is a free download to try it.

I use GIMP software (Photoshop like ) to convert Sketchup drawings to 2D scaled images, but also for photos I've taken, both smart phone and point and shoot. As I get more into carving and such, I've taken pictures of plants and trees, used GIMP to translate them to image files and then ink scape or BigPrint to make them printable.

None of it is very elegant, but for the cost, I don't mind a bit of extra work.

Maybe not exactly what you were looking for, but might give you some ideas.

Be well,
Ben

If I want a picture of anything I find what I want on the internet, use the sniping tool in Windows 7 (and 8 or 10) and just copy it into a Word (old 2000) document. Then I can resize it to whatever I want. I can even snip portions of that if I want. This is much easier than trying to find something in clip art.

Here's an example from my dog's sanctuary.
