    Hello. I was wondering if anybody knows a place where I can buy images of NFL football players. I have looked at bigstockphoto and istockphoto's but they don't have the images I need.
    Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

    The NFL may have their own stock image operation much like National Geographic.

    I'm no lawyer but do be careful - things like player faces and trademarked team names and the league can only be used without express permission in certain situations like news; never in advertising or other commercial trade. This is not legal advice, of course.

    Getty may have some images - same goes for Corbis.

    Thanks for th input. Ya, I just need pictures of the players, like in action or something. I wouldn't use trademark images and logos.

    Thanks guys.
    I'll check out those sites yo0u mentioned too.

    :( Ouch. That's probably because they are legal (and maybe good quality too).

    If you are not showing logos or faces can't you use high school or other non-pro pics?

    I've not shot the subject or I'd try to help you out with my stock photos.

    A few years back I was into sports cards and was selling them at a both in florida. This is a long process of waiting and hoping I wrote to the teams and I told them exactly what I was doing i told them i needed some pictures of the teams after about 4 months of waiting I got 7 pictures from them. So if you may want to try it it can't hurt.

    will do, thanks.


    Edit:
    I don't think I can legally use those. Thanks anyway.
