    Need better stock photos

    Sup yall? I'm at my new job now and we have a couple new venues we are preparing ads for. We've exhausted every stock photo site we know of looking for shots of 'hot chicks'.

    Where do you guys like to get your stock from?

    Flickr is always an alternative route, you just have to check the copyright of each photo - most are free to use.

    Maybe you can convince your boss you need to schedule a photoshoot.

    We have a great photographer on staff, it's just not worth what it would cost to do a shoot. We do have a budget for photo...shopping :P

    EVP, even with your long hair, i don't think you'd qualify as a hot chick.

    Seriously though, add up what it costs to buy some quality hot chick photos (if you can find any), not to mention the time it takes tracking them down, going through them... and cost of a day shoot with a couple of models. It would be interesting to know.

    I bought a bunch of pictures last week from http://www.alamy.com, you might want to try there, they have a nice selection.

    I paid $400 for a "Virtual CD" with 104 pictures.

    I use istockphoto.com - some great pics. You can upgrade to a pro account there too, depending on how much you're going to use it.
