#44Believe it or not, I've found a decent amount of high quality photos to use on flickr's creative commons search: https://www.flickr.com/creativecommons/
Be careful if the photo includes a person’s face prominently. If it does, the person in the photo has likeness rights in the photo[0] which the photographer cannot assign to you without a signed model release form from the subject of the photo. Most Flickr photographers are amateurs who don’t have model release forms for their photos. Plenty of lawsuits have occurred around the use of Flickr photos without model rele…
Thank you so much!
I had no idea and this makes a big difference with my new website.

#45For the occasional quick & dirty search, Google images could work. You can filter for usage rights.

I didn't see the usage rights filter on the mobile site, but it showed up when I flipped to the desktop version.

#46I have same question but for not processed images. You can find high quality but highly shopped images on sites like unsplash or low quality not processed images on flickr creative commons search.
But it's very hard to find hight quality images without film effects or other filters.

WHOLLY! Thank you very much. I'll be going through and every one of those. Though judging from the popularity of this thread, probably likely other startups will have the same images as me :)
Hey, yeah its a super good list. As others have pointed out, it really depends on what you wanna do with the picture.
A few of my favorites are Stocksy and Cavan.
On the more user generated side you have eyeem and 500px.
And on the high high end you have getty.
Check out Haystack.im and let me know if its helpful.

Great list! Now I'm looking for a similar list for icons. And fonts.
Google Fonts
This is probably off topic and will irritate designers around the world. But personally I disable all custom fonts. I have two. Helvatica equivalent and a monospace. Sizing is limited to 8-14 depending on screen resolution

That's why it's better to just pay the premium and use getty or another paid stock image site.
