Another source of stock photos is microsoft’s clip art and media page. Although the photos not very good resolution for printing, they are great for the web and for small images in printed pieces. The clip art is good for sparking ideas. I needed a diploma, a scroll, and a bell for a logo draft. I found something along the lines that I liked and then modified them in illustrator so they didn’t look micro-softy. You never know where the inspiration is going to come from. It’s good to have a variety of sources.
