Linkswap: What's Your Favorite Online Image Archive?
Who out there can point us to a good source of free textures and images on the web? If you've found a good one, share the wealth with us.
I never really thought about it much before, but I can start things off with the following site which appears very nice on the surface... http://www.morguefile.com That page also refers to a few other sites that look interesting... www.imageafter.com www.sxc.hu www.ppdigital.com www.bigfoto.com Okay, yes, this is a bit whimsical for a MobileRead post. But, hey, it might just be useful, for example, if you are converting text ebooks into a PDA format and want to add some eye candy. So join the discussion thread and let us know what photo archive sites you've used. |

I am using istockphoto.com sometimes; while it is not free, it has a huge collection and images are rather affordable.

A nice source is Google's image search.

Google Image is nice just watch for copyright issues... freely available doesn't mean always mean free
