Free graphics and things

BrainDance · 07-30-2009, 11:24 PM

I didn't know where else to put this, but I just opened esitegraphics.com, basically all free graphics, buttons,blanks,stock photos (taken by me) and loads of other things.
Seriously, free. registration is required to deter hotlinking/leeching. otherwise, all free for downloading.
I'm uploading free twitter backgrounds tonight.

Nice site. check your header in IE8. Something is off there

haikuangel · 07-31-2009, 10:29 AM

Wow i checked out eSiteGraphics.com and for a site that offers free graphics it sure has a wide selection. Thanks for sharing this with the rest of us forumers. By the way if anyone else has other sites that offer design portfolios it would be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance.

Nice site, but your other site eCoverSource.com: has a script problem. I get the dreaded save file thingy when I go there. Looks like it may an script execution problem or server problem.

Harrier · 07-31-2009, 02:47 PM

Thank you for the free graphics site.... I registered and contributed

firstpagewebsearch · 08-01-2009, 07:50 AM

nice site. really helps when you dont have time to design. lol

BrainDance · 08-01-2009, 10:33 AM

thanks for the heads up on ie and for taking the time to acknowledge! Yes, I hoped it would be a help!

Harrier · 08-02-2009, 11:00 PM

One of the drawbacks with free stuff is actually finding the stuff you are after. Hours of searching free graphics sites and getting everything but what you actually first wanted can be resourceful in filling your bookmark folder but not fruitful in your original search.

As this new site has been created especially for free graphics and stock pictures, I was wondering if we could use this thread to request particular graphics and pictures that others could submit to the site???

BrainDance · 08-02-2009, 11:25 PM

I just set up a directory on esitegraphics.com for free site links for graphic and design related resources ONLY, feel free to add your favorites

LinearChaos · 08-03-2009, 12:59 AM

I looked at this feature and it says there is a charge of €10 (Euros) to submit a URL.

BrainDance · 08-04-2009, 12:03 AM

ahh stink! I removed the directory and am just installed a new one, am working on categories. I decided to add free and pro services for website and graphic design development only

Launder · 08-04-2009, 12:16 AM

Nice site. Really like free graphics, I'm a graphic nut. I hoard them. I have a really outrageous amount of USB storage devices with them on it. I really have to cut back but these are great.

BrainDance · 08-04-2009, 12:40 AM

don't cut back..feed that addiction! I'm font addicted myself and have over 86k of them! graphic design is fun for me when it doesnt 'have' to be done..enjoy and happy downloading

NickL · 08-04-2009, 04:05 PM

Very nice. You might get more views if you put this in the WSO section as a free resource. Very smart way to build your mailing list!

BrainDance · 08-04-2009, 04:17 PM

Hi There Nick
I'm not building a mailing list, and not interested in using the site for sucking people dry for their information, there is too much of that already! I even say on the site not to use a real email address if they don't want to. registration is only to disallow hot linking.
I just want it to be free. simple as that. if i get anything from affiliate ads, fine, if not..no biggie.

Harrier · 08-04-2009, 05:16 PM

I added a few more pics (Floral close ups)... just waiting for them to be approved.

I will get around to adding more later. It would also help if there are any particular types of photos required that I can help with.

BrainDance · 08-04-2009, 06:19 PM

Hi Harrier,
I do site updates late night, and will approve them at that time. as far as needs, I don't know of any, but think general use, marketing,design,money?
I opened that section b/c I have years of unused photos I have taken and wanted to give them a new home!

I will be working on some PC hardware pics soon. It is surprising what people will use for backgrounds in banners etc. So will get around to other things as soon as I have more free time.... hehehe

Nice selection, thanks for sharing this us. I bookmarked.

Noticed you haven’t animated graphics. May I ask you – why? don’t you like them?

BrainDance · 08-06-2009, 10:12 AM

Regarding the animated graphics question.
1 animation per page might work if it is the right one, 99 percent of the time they aren't used correctly. you find dancing bananas,rolling smiley faces, super poor quality gifs. They look cheap,cheap and cheap.
Even the well done animations from somewhere like the animation factory, if overused look horrible.
I think the animated "click here" graphics or an arrow highlighting a special offer can be useful, but stay away from the ridiculous animations from the 90's. Cheap and more cheap.
Again, PERSONAL opinion.

Besides I did all these graphics myself and I only do animations and flash for clients!

Harrier · 08-09-2009, 06:29 PM

I added some floral pictures that were approved.

MichaelSchultz · 08-11-2009, 04:32 PM
