Where can I get free stock photos?

Discussion in 'Graphics & Multimedia' started by buckknife1, Aug 28, 2008.

    Is there a place to get either free stock photos or relatively inexpensive stock photos? I don't have a lot of money to spend on photos.

    Thanks

    sxc.hu is ok. I highly recommend you use istock photo though. It frankly puts your work on another level. You can buy credits in 20 dollar increments. They also have a great litebox feature so you can sort out your project before you buy images.

    Google images is free. Just kidding. I usually get my stuff at istockphoto you have to pay but most stuff for web resolution is a buck!

    I can give you some of my own photos if you want to trade something. I am open to suggestions. Article writing, link exchange?

    Found this cool tool through a techcrunch post. You can find really good Creative Commons and free stock photos from the best sources. If you click on the categories button you can switch to find Stock photos or general Images. I've added the plugin to my browser search and It really saves me a lot of time
    Enjoy
