Free/Cheap Stock Image resources?

by Jason Swearingen · in General Discussion · 02/11/2006 (6:44 pm) · 5 replies

I am looking for a good source of stock photos.

GettyImages.com is obviously the most prestigious, but their images are expensive, running $150 to $800 on average.


I found a nice free website (www.sxc.hu) with a reasonable collection.

my question to you: what other good free or cheap stock image websites are out there?

I dont mind paying for images, but my buget is around $20/image max. anyone have any good leads?

Thanks,

-Jason

IStockphoto.com is one I've used for images in the past. They've recently changed some things around with their site and pricing, and I haven't gotten a chance to try out their new format.

EDIT: www.sxc.hu is the other one I would have mentioned. They have a nice collection as well.

www.texturemonk.com is great, and comes in $40/year download-only or $80/year shipped DVDs varieties.
