I launched another website this week, FreePhotoClips.com, that provides free photo objects (aka Photo Clips) for personal and non-profit design projects.  I’ve masked each image on it’s own Photoshop layer which makes it a snap to incorporate it into any background regardless of the color.  These are perfect for Web Pages, Blogs, Powerpoint Presentations, Newsletters and most any other multimedia project.  As of this post I have 20 photoclips in the gallery.  I’ll be adding more every week.  I hope you find the site to be a useful resource.
