enjoy. - flap, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1a lot of those images are really weak...
- ThSid, on 06/10/2009, -0/+1I see, that resource is growing bit-a-bit..
But still, sxc seems to be the leader.
From myself i may add a list of like 35 places to get stock photos for free: http://designbeginshere.com/free-stock-photos.php - mhl12, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0ya the link is down but one of the largest stock photo sites that I recommend is http://www.sxc.hu/
- jaredvolkl, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0That was kind of interesting. I watched the digg effect happen! I was browsing the site and all of a sudden mysql stopped responding and then I get nothing.
- kriegs, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0damn, b-man is goin to freak when the "digg-effect" kicks in, but good for him, he offers a great service. (yes, i know the dude that runs it)
- boozedrinker, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Yeah - I'll digg, because I hate people that post comments just to say that they aren't digging (retards)
But nonetheless - this site kinda suckes compared to www.sxc.hu - in fact, it really sucks.
:- - mark1372, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Lots, not lot's. Jeez.
- pyrodude, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0i agree with boozedrinker
doesnt compare one bit to sxc.hu... ive been using that site for ALL my pictures since i was in a photoshop class... easiest A i ever earned... bunch a newbs in the class couldnt even do a ubersimple gradient mask.
will digg though cuz it may come in handy - republicoftexas, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0On the front page with 20 diggs?
- dirtyfratboy, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0coooool
- Penmaton, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0No one noticed the misspelled words coose and amimals? "You can coose from Amimals," I am shocked I am the first to comment on them.
- BugMeNot2, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0http://sxc.hu/
The best. - republicoftexas, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Wierd it only showed 20 diggs and no comments when I first lookied at it. All back to normal now.
- in4mation, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0careful what u do with these photos.

===================================
I say that cause one of my friends just got billed $5000US for using a preview version of an image that is licensed by a stock photo company. The ***** use programs that crawl the Internet to find copyright infringements and use that as basis to "create new clients". The funny thing is that he did not even download the image from their website but from a javascript tutorial website. So who is to say that they didn't plant the pic there themselves? - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0pyrodude you must be the master of ps! all those noobs taht didn't know how to use it! Ahahaha. I wonder why they were taking a class in it if they didn't already know how to use it!
Ahahaha - MisterNipples, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Digging for the comments
- sqthreer, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0It couldn't find any results when I searched for "cheese".
???? - redrighthand, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0boy you really get what you pay for
- mianos, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0There are a lot of free stock photos libraries out there now as listed above.
This site is *NOT* one of them.
As above, read this again "for personal and non-commercial usage" - DiggMyOwnGrave, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0in4mation, what are you talking about!? You said, " The funny thing is that he did not even download the image from their website but from a javascript tutorial website."
Well who the hell said that its ok to use the image from that tutorial site!? - CreativeGuy, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I don't mind the Google adsense, but they could at least put some decent photos on the site. Everything there completely sucks and you can't use it for much of anything outside of a desktop photo. Useless. No Digg.
- ifonly, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0This is a google adsense bomb site, one fatal click and WHAM.
- emmerse, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0some free images here too
http://www.123rf.com/freeimages.php - BigBill62629, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0bogus
- in4mation, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0@tristanbethe
Thanks for the link. Definitely friendlier terms than stockvault.net.
@diggmyowngrave
digg ate my link ;) Here it is again: http://online.wsj.com/public/article/SB112897424251164666-0mFu92_5xrCHDRrqLE9YeCOfOnI_20061015.html?mod=tff_main_tff_top - in4mation, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0@diggmyowngrave
The tutorial said to use it. There was no direct or indirect mention of any copyrights on the image. The original file name was changed, hence he could not have used that as a search parameter. The gif's copyright info, if there was any to begin with, was long gone since the image was gimped. Point is there was no way for him to tell.
Crap like this can only come from US companies where the national sport is using the context of the law as premise to screw people over. In a nutshell what they are telling him is "We are attempting to extort $5000 from you and if you do not comply we will take you to court where it will cost you a hell of a lot more than the friendly fee we are charging you right now."
If you are interested, read this from the Wall Street Journal.
If you are still confused by comment don't hesitate to ask. I have tons more info that can help clarify.
Peace - tristanbethe, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0If you are concerned about copyrights check http://www.imageafter.com All images are free for commercial use and you do not even have to place credits. No need to ask permission from each photographer of which you want to use the image. Not as many yet as sxc.hu though but still 12500 and growing.
- Boondoggle, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0site is down, but i'm guessing there are no free titties.
- themediadrop, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0Dugg purely for the comments, the fact that lots of commenters have steered folks to sxc.hu, which is flat out awesome.
