    Royalty free images for use in matches (updated 1/3/08)

    Just to reiterate and avoid confusion since it's been asked a couple of times about copyrighted images being used in tennis matches. Please post links to sites that are royalty free image stocks which can be used for tennis or other graphic work. Don't forget you are of course encouraged to use your own photos and artwork in your volleys, just if you need to use stock images, please try to make sure they're free of copyright restrictions.

    This isn't a conversation thread so please just post a link and brief description of any requirements/info on the sites. I may edit/delete posts to keep this as a useful resource thread for the future or add it to the exisiting sticky thread.

    LINKS:

    Here's a massive listing of tutorial and tips sites
    *This page is a link page to a massive selection of photoshop (mainly) tutorials and tricks/tips. Bookmark it, you know it's useful!!


    PhotoCase
    *Massive selection of high res, large size images. You have to join as you're limited to 3 images given to your download credit weekly if you login on Monday mornings.

    iStock Photo
    *There is a very low fee per pic at I stock... it's simply there to offset expenses and some of the proceeds go to the artist.

    Blue Vertigo List of Links

    *Good quality images, clipart, and media.

    FreeImages.co.uk
    *While I was impressed with the resolution of the images, I wasn't impressed by the terms. You have to give credit or a link to the site if you plan on using images from this site.

    Morguefile
    *Again, I was very impressed by the size and resolution of the images, but unlike freeimages.co.uk, you can use these without any concern for credit. Nice wide selection of pics, too!

    *Only a handful of images and you have to give credit to the photographer , but they are good quality and usually on a white background
