Source for Images

Other than the popular image sites like flickr, are there any other good sources for website images that might be less expensive?

A few months ago I remember seeing a guy that had a membership site where you could download as many images (I think he had like 5,000) as you wanted for ridiculously cheap. Can't remember his name now though.

Thanks.

Check out morguefile.com and stock.xchng (www.sxc.hu). I would also check out deviantart.com I've found some good images on there royalty free. If you are looking for icons and such I usually go to GraphicRiver.net it's cheap (not free) but has a huge resource of images and illustrations for designers.

Another option is to use Google Advanced Image Search with the "royalty free" flag enabled under "usage rights".

Here's two videos that should help:

  Check out iClipart.com. Contrary to the name, they have tons of regular images. Dirt cheap for a 1 week subscription.
  
  @ Google image search... be careful with that. Just because Google says an image is "royalty free" doesn't necessarily mean that it is. Anyone can take a copyrighted image, tag it as "royalty free", and post it on their site (or Flikr) for the Google spiders to pick up. That's why I think it's best to stick with a well-known commercial image site.

Hi,
I have attached a file with a list of image sites. I created this list a few months back for a project I was working on at the time. There are some comments and pricing information which was correct then.

I usually use Photodune or GraphicRiver. Most of the time my content only needs the $1 sized images, and at most the images are ~$10. Huge selection, easy to use.
