some sites that will help you find images

Over at copyblogger was a post about finding images for your blog posts.

Most people who are looking for images to use will be aware of flickr (free - read about how the licencing works) and istockphoto (cheap), but from the comments on the post, I found a few sites that I’d only vaguely heard of, or long forgotten:

  • Zemanta - a wordpress plug-in, firefox extension, and website that helps with image searching
  • stock.xchng - free stock photography
  • Photo Dropper - another wordpress plugin
  • morgueFile - free stock photography
  • flickr storm - flickr search interface
  • flickrleech - another flickr search interface
  • compfight - flickr search interface, in my opinion the best of the ones in this list.
