Many of you may be asking why I am using purchased stock photography here on my blog instead of the gazillions of public domain or Creative Commons options... Well the answer is 2-fold:
1) As a freelance graphic designer, I have loads of purchased images "just lying around."
2) I am picky when it comes to graphics and many times it's easier to search a stock database (paying as little as $1 an image - 72 dpi) than to comb the web for an image of questionable copyright.
My stock service de jour is iStockphoto.
