- nesagwa, on 10/12/2007, -0/+23www.sxc.hu is the best stock photo site Ive come accross.
Comunity driven and alot of talented photographers on there. - robotplague, on 10/12/2007, -1/+11Free for low resolution images, you have to pay for the high res versions.
- darkdaedra, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8Still, the low res images on this site are considerably better than most stock photo sites. They are certainly usable for most web graphics. The selection is pretty narrow though. Although I can't complain when it's offered for free.
- boredzo, on 10/12/2007, -2/+7A redundant statement. Higher-resolution versions are ALWAYS better. ;)
- digi7al64, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5I have found http://www.morguefile.com/ to be the best for high quality royalty free images.
- bdude, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3http://commons.wikimedia.org - already here and hi res
- sirkism, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2thanks for the links.
- Mekun, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3Scrolling through the files suck. Who designed the scroll bar to left to right instead of up and down to view all the pics. Bad design.
- ThSid, on 05/27/2009, -0/+1Thanks for the resource. I like the transparent "folders"..
Will likely add it to my own list of stock photo resources in some time - i'm building it at http://designbeginshere.com - theone3, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2http://sxc.hu

$3 - $5 dollar images are CHEAP and there are some fairly decent ones if you're not doing anything too commercial or professional. - ylang, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1thanks for all this links, they're useful...
