Does anyone know where I could get good free pix? I am thinking of adding some images to my website. I am looking for sports pix mostly but would like to find a website with a variety of free pix.

Thanks

This is pretty much the definitive guide right here, in my opinion.

Call me crazy, but you know, I like personalized things with pictures of you and your life. Maybe not as professional, but infinitely more grabbing.

Flickr is a good place to get free images. Just make sure an image you like has the Creative Commons license.

All other things being equal, a personalized picture that is unique to the poster and the content adds value for me. I prefer the personalized approach to the highly polished but otherwise non relevant picture I so often see on the web.

personally, I like iStockPhoto. It's $1/picture, but you get amazing, professional level photos and images.

I recommend stock.xchng - the leading free stock photography site

I like the Wikimedia Commons: Main Page - Wikimedia Commons

There's even a fair bit of public domain stuff there, which I like because public domain stuff has no restrictions on usage at all.
