Warning about Clipart.com

Do not be put off by the name. They have far more than clipart so read on.

Clear instructions about their royalty free license and copyright rules.

Advantages

  • You can look through the whole directory before you pay to download any images
  • You can take out a subscription for one week only ($14.95) and download a maximum of 250 images. (I took out a months subscription and downloaded 1,000 so I now have a good stock)

  • Many pictures available in multiple file formats
  • Multiple pictures can be downloaded into a zip file.

Thank you BIS.

I would just like to add a site specific to icons, instead of pictures (if anyone is interested to enhance the view of a website):

ICONSPEDIA: http://www.iconspedia.com/

It's all free and it has a very large database.

Great info "BIS." There's another source that you can use for FREE even for commercial purposes AND no attribution required! I just used some for a landing page header. Here's the Licensing Terms: http://morguefile.com/license/morguefile/

Thanks for this. I'm going to check out all the ideas that people have given me - and then I will add a page for them - so we have a really good resource for people.

I second that - great training resource BIS. A new player in town that I've checked out is PhotoDune.net. They have a nice collection of stock images which I haven't seen replicated across other marketplaces.

Great resource again BIS, also very good how you've gone into some detail and not just listed a bunch of sites. Thanks

Thanks Craig. It's not a very long list but I wanted to be able to talk about sites that I've used myself.

I also use Clipart.com for paid photos and normally find what ever I'm looking for, I like them because the price is pretty good compared to other stock photo sites and they offer subscriptions like you pointed out.
