Need pictures for your web design?

Does your site look drab and uninviting? Time to add some images to your site copy.

This usually produces responses along these lines:

"but where do we get these images?"

"We haven't got the time to take them ourselves, and we don't have the budget to pay a professional to do it for us"

"This is not an affordable or viable solution"

Fortunately, help is at hand as this is where stock image sites come in.

Ranging from:
the high end Getty Images,
to the affordable iStock
to the free (but check the license on each pic) stock.xchng

We would advise that, unless you want something incredibly specific, you start with stock.xchng or a similar site, and go from there. Alternatively, dust off the camera and get snapping!
