What stock Photo sites do you use?

    What stock photo sites do you like to use and why. I use the ones listed at Stock Photo Sites

    It would be nice to know of some more for when I can't find what I'm looking for. I'm mostly looking for the low price ones ($1-5 a download)

    Thanks

    Looks like everyone uses the same ones as on the list. Good to know I've been using the top sites. :)

    definitely sxc.hu for free stock images.
    photos.com and stockxpert.com for cheap, paid ones.

    I use Getty, but that's for a paycheck, not for photos to use. When I want a photo of something specific, I prefer to grab my camera and go make the photo myself.

    I use sxc.hu for the free ones, and when I do not find what I need I buy images from fotolia.com.

    As said before iStockphoto.com seems to be one of the more popular and for us UK based images searchers it is getting better with UK defined content.

    Well, istockphoto seems to have best quality resources, but fotolia is also great and has one major advantage over istockphoto. You can buy rendered vector in small size for minimum cost whereas istockphoto doesn't allow it. I came across some elements I needed but the vector was at price of $30 what was sometimes too much to me. I'm still using both anyway. I would also consider Photodune from Envato. It is in beta phase yet but looks promising. Prices are lower than on other services but high quality of pictures is held.
