    you could try a free stock photo place. something like Morgue File or stock.xchng
    Search for 'earth' or 'globe' ../ something like that. You should get some decent results

    If you're looking for full earth images, NASA has a ton of them. Search for "NASA blue marble" and you should come up with a lot of them. Here's a site I've been just playing with using a full earth image:
    www.inconvenientwebsite.com

    Good luck with your search. - Russ

    you can get high quality images for cheap
    at istockphoto.com

    I just went there and searched "globe" and
    there are over 19,000 results.

    If you're looking for earth-from-space imagery, for god's sake, don't buy them. NASA posts them online for free and they are all in the public domain.

    Free stock photo sites are the way to go. I highly recommend dreamstime, istockphoto. I just checked and they have 100 free images of earth. Just go to their site, click free in the bottom right, and then search for earth. Or you can always use Google's image search.
