This site is truly innovative – the philosophy behind it is simple. If you have difficulty finding just the right image for your design project, you can send the folks at Photo Rogue a request and they will actually have one of their volunteer photographers go out and take precisely the photo that you seek! This service is entirely free, although they do not offer a guarantee that your request will be filled, as surely certain images will be impossible to locate. However, if you’re seeking a particular photo, it’s certainly worth trying Photo Rogue! The results of your request, should it prove successful, will be posted on their gallery for all to see, but your personal information will remain private.
A vast collection of stock photos for free private and commercial use, Photo Rack organizes its images by category. Categories include Lifestyle, Nature, Food/Cooking, Animals, Industrial/Technology, Sports, Business, People, Cities, Backgrounds/Textures, and Miscellaneous.
This is a very simple yet diverse community of photography and design enthusiasts! The site is designed very much as a participatory forum, with a simple registration process required if you want to post replies to discussion threads or even begin your own. Once you register, you can create your own blog and personal gallery, in which you can upload your own stock photos and designs as well as gain free access to download those provided by other users.
You can use the images for whatever you want, personal, commercial or non-profit use for free. You cannot copyright the images nor can you resell them unaltered. Have fun with them any way you want-- commercial or otherwise.
