Many thanks,

For free photos, you can try - upixes.com/free.html. There are few free photos there but it is a growing content.

I think he asked this because he wanted images without copyright laws in order to put them in his web design. Google images are owned by the people who posted them and using them could be grounds for a lawsuit.

I agree this is quite a good website but it can take a while to troll through all the images.

We just put up some free stock images for people to use. We have clients all the time who absolutely refuse to pay for stock, so we know the pressure it puts on designers to get good results with marginal images.

That's why we made our own free stock site. No people (i.e. no model release issues), and we've endeavored to make sure there's no branding etc, in the images. We're adding images all the time, so if you want to see something specific, send us some comments...

Haha!

I've always wondered why people paid for their photography when Google images was free... :rolleyes:

If they are marked as CC the author doesn't mind them being used (as long as they're not the non-commercial version of CC).

http://www.google.co...ge_search?hl=en - in Advanced Search in Google Images you can select the 'Usage Rights' to 'For Commercial Reuse' which will filter your search. Double check the rights of the photo on the host site before use though.

Try morguefile.com, don't let the name confuse you it's nothing to do with bodies lol.

Professional photographers and artists use the term 'morguefile' for unfinshed or unwanted material. Plus all material onsite is free for commercial use, free to download and high resolution.
