|  Best Royalty Free Stock Photo Gallery
Hi all, Do most of you use iStockPhoto to download most of your royalty free stock photos or do you use some other good gallery sites as well? Thanks! |

iStock, Shutterstock & Bigstock! At least you are covered with licenses. |

I like the selection on iStockPhoto better, but StockXpert has a pretty darn good selection too and you get a lot more bang for your buck there. The credits are cheaper, and in many cases photos don't cost as many credits. Of course I always look at stock.xchng first, in case I can find what I want for free. Usually I don't, but I've had some pleasant surprises. |

I use Dreamstime a lot. A much better search function than iStockPhoto, and high quality photos.

| Re: Best Royalty Free Stock Photo Gallery
Just wanted to confirm if I can buy and add text to stock images. Basically, what I intend to do is add text to images and make them animated gifs with a call to action (click here etc.). The image if clicked would lead to an affiliate product. Also, I believe I can crop the image to suit my site page's layout I could check with istockphoto but they have a TAT of upto 5 days, so thought of checking here to get a prompt answer. Thanks! |

| I Didn't See Veer.Com Mentioned Veer.Com has a great selection of stock photos for free. While many of their photos are for sale, many of them can be downloaded as a "COMP" -- complimentary -- with no restrictions. They also have great pics for $1 as well. Just search for pics, download the comp, and it's yours. And no, there are no watermarks on the comps either -- they can be used as is. |
