    Hi everyone,

    Whenever I see people entering contests, etc posting images of people/houses/anything, I always wonder where they get them from. The majority of the time they don't have a watermark but surely these people can't be buying images just for a concept design? Where are they coming from?

    I'd love to build a list of sites to get free/royalty free images from, so if you post one, I'll start a list in this post.

    Thanks!

    Dean

    There are already threads about stock images I believe.

    But notably, you can get stock from http://www.deviantart.com/ << but you have to read the stock rules of the stock artists first.
    And there is also www.sxc.hu

    You could also use a search engine to try to find images that belong to the public domain ;)

    (but there are surely many more resources)
