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/

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.

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.
