Hi,

Does anyone know of any alternatives to Getty Images?

Ideally im interested in purchasable royalty free images.

thanks,

Charlie

Just give them $10 and you can download 20 photos. It’s great if you don’t want to shell out the money for a stock image CD. Alternatively, if you do like having a CD, try http://www.tastystock.com/

I’m a little confused. What does it mean to be royalty free? Does that mean it’s a one time fee? Are there any completely free photo site out there like www.sxc.hu?

MadCool - you need to check the terms, conditions and license of the image you’re purchasing, but generally you buy a royalty-free licence to use an image, which means you pay for it once up front and don’t have to make any subsequent royalty payments for it’s use.

Except for on-selling it of course.
