Hello

As a newbie I feel like I have been making progress here at WA. I have to say THANKS to all who have been so supportive in giving me help through their advice. I need more help though and I know to ask. Where to you go to buy pictures for articles and websites? I don't mind buying the pictures if I like them but I don't want to bankrupt my budget. I understand that the right photo can make a wonderful impact on the reader and the wrong one might turn them off.

  • Where to buy Pictures for articles?
  • Do I have to show the credits for the picture I buy?
  • What if I can't show the credits on the articles?
  • How to choose a picture for my article?
Thanks again for any help and comments are appreciated!

Thanks Sajeethphili i will look!

You may also want to do a Google search for a program called Irfanview. It's free and it helps you re-size your pictures for faster loading on your website or article. They say a picture should be about 150 KB or less. Anything bigger will just make your page load slower!

Good to know!

Thanks Romeo I didnt know that.

No problem, happy to help!

Hi, For quite a lot of my pictures I go to morguefile , Just do a search for it, Most of the time No attribution/credit, is needed, make sure that you read all of the licence terms, but usually you are good to go, hope that helps. I forgot to say that most are FREE to use. Good luck in your search

Thanks for the help Gary I appreciate it!

Thanks I'm Learning !

Didn't know that and thanks a lot.

Istockphoto is one of the most popular places for purchasing photos. You can get some great photos for like a buck. You don't need to show credits for the picture that you purchase.

You can also find some great pictures for free by doing a google search for "Public Domain images"

Thanks Romeo for the help I will take a look!

Man i need to write all this down...

I totally know what you mean. I've actually opened up a folder on my computer and essentially dedicated it to internet marketing. Inside the folder, I have separate wordpad files that I have kept for referencing on whatever topic I have learnt about internet marketing: Traffic websites, general tips, etc.

I also make a folder for each website I create. Inside that folder, it also has a folder for images.
