Where is the best place to get pictures? Is google images the only place? Cause It is really hard to get the perfect picture ( not to mention high res )

Google Image is commonly used. I've noticed that Yahoo also has a great selection that varies significantly from Google's search. There are also free-use sites chock-full of pics you can use.

The search engine is a bit shite but If you look hard enough you can find a nice hi-res image you can fuck about with! Wink

Save yerself a million hours trying to figure it out and listen to Anfa.
SXC is about as good as it gets.
SXC plus Google should handle it all.....make sure when ya google you select 'large' in the drop down menu...if that dont find it, THEN try search 'all'.

http://www.bluevertigo.com.ar/bluevertigo.htm This site has a lot of resources to lots of great things you can use too. I like the Stock, Brushes, and Mix/Color section most.

See this is why I started this thread and still think it's a good idea.

Excerpt for you:

Source/Stock Images
Source Exchange - Premium and royalty-free images. BE SURE TO CHECK USAGE TERMS ON EACH IMAGE!
Google Image Search - Duh.
DeviantArt Stock Images - Again check the usage requirements!
Sony's Image Station
Copyright Friendly Photos - A good resource for images that have been donated by photographers for the purpose of learning!
FotoSearch - Stock photography and footage.
Yoto Photo - A pretty good search of free images
Image*After - Site says it is "a large online free photo collection. You can download and use any image or texture from our site and use it in your own work, either personal or commercial."
