There doesn't have to be anything "stock" about stock imagery


25 November 2010 1:00 GMT / By Ian Hughes

If a picture paints a thousand words, www.istockphoto.com would be worth several trillion words and all of them would be worth reading. It's a stock image library that is internationally recognised as one of the best places to find great images for use in print or online.

The site relaunched a couple of months ago and it now looks a lot more modern and is much easier to get around. It's a hell of a lot faster too, and we're reliably informed that the behind-the-scenes architecture is set to accommodate some exciting new features in the coming months.

You can search for photos, video, illustration, audio and Flash content and the costs are minimal compared to commissioning your own photography. They even have free content, which is updated weekly, and rest assured it's all top quality stuff.

If you're in the creative business and you need reliable, affordable images or illustrations from one of the best in the business, bookmark this new-look resource now.
