    Designers, where do you get your stock photos at?

    Where can I find some good stock photos? Need photos of parks, families, etc.

            no, no really, I was kidding. I always try http://www.sxc.hu/ first to see if there's something free, if not I try istockphotos for no reason other than that's where I've my account and some spare credits, and they usually have what I'm looking for, however sxc.hu is always my first choice, even though their paid version http://www.stockxpert.com/ is quite expensive for the same quality than istockphoto, they advertise photos as low as $1 and yes they have them, but they're crap

              Little tip. If you submit your designs to Istockphoto in the gallery section, you get free credits when they are approved. I almost never buy credits because of that.

              Some great ideas too if you browse the designer's spotlight
