At the moment I think the best place to find royalty free, good quality, reasonably priced (i.e. cheap) images is iStockPhoto (http://www.istockphoto.com)

Anyone know of any other places :h:

the drawing and design forum has a sticky with useful sites/tutorials, and i believe there are some stock photo sites there... but they may all be free ones (so probably not as good quality)

photodisc.com

Getty (photodisc.com) is the main reason I see iStockPhoto as the best there is.

At iStockPhoto I can download 20 images for $10
At Getty (photodisc) I can download 1 image for $50

this is why I don't even look in Getty when I need an image, but thanks for the suggestion anyway. :thumb:

@iLikePie: I hadn't even thought of looking in Drawing & Design, thanks there was some good links, think I might try the MorgueFile though I only looked at one or two just now.

Anyone know any others?

D&D's sticky has a great list of others but, iStockphoto and scx.hu are the 2 I use most frequently. I have used getty, but rarely because of their cost as you said. These other 2 sites have as good of quality images in most cases.
