Premium Professional-Grade Images for All!


Remember back in 1997 when you were eagerly introduced to the marvels of “clip-art”. Word seemed to have an endless bank of images, appropriate for virtually any and every topic. It’s an effortless way to spice up a dry, mundane slideshow or take up more space in a word document. Yes, clip art was the easy solution to all of your image needs. Well, we have all since grown up and our needs as creative designers and individuals have evolved since as well. For those who want nice, BIG (not grainy), beautiful images, then look no further. The Photo Stock Exchange (www.sxc.hu) has a massive library of almost any image u could think of. And best of all, they’re all free. Just make a free account and download away. Freelance photographers who are gracious enough to share their work with the rest of the world take these images and upload them to the site. The quality is positively astounding. I mean, background image quality. Just look at this image I downloaded of a flower, and used as my desktop picture. I am always amazed at the crystal clear exactness of the photos. So, impress your boss or just spice up an ordinary presentation with these beautiful photos and look back on your old days of clip art dependency with a haughty chuckle.

This is a photo Snapshot of my desktop. Look at the precision and color sharpness.
