where do you get pictures for your software?

[tlevell]

I would just like to know where you guys get pictures for your software Icons and covers. Do you buy them from those photo websites or what???

Thanks:)

They may not be the best, but I often take my own pictures. No worry about rights at all. And, you can get just the right subject with them. If you are doing something with real estate, grab your camera and hit the road. I recently wrote a book about garage sales. They are easy to get pictures of. Both garage sale signs and the business in action.

You can buy images online for only a few bucks. Search Google for "free photos". Most are not free however.

You can also use images from public domain sources. Or, parts of some photos may be all you need. Taking your own pictures is interesting too. Sometimes I take my own picture for forums and such. :eek:

Or, you can steal pictures from other sites. But, that makes for sleepless nights. Better make your own.

Thanks for the help!

1. http://imagebase.davidniblack.com/main.php
2. http://freerangestock.com/ -All images are at least 2400 x 1600, and photos can be used for commercial or personal projects.
3. http://www.photoshopsupport.com/resources/stock-photos.html
4. http://photoxpress.com

A few good ones. Theres a few others but moola is needed.

Travis, you can get cheap pictures at electronic stores that sell software. You normally can get thousands of stock photos that you can use for personal use. Just make sure you can use them for commercial use.

If you are interested in a software to make your own ecovers or software boxes for your sales pages, you can try GFXWriter. It is easy to make header graphics and box covers with it. I prefer it over PhotoShop for ease of use. If you decide to buy it, use the coupon "GRAPHICS" to get it for only 7.77.

And......if you need a software to make up your sales pitches, demonstrations, instructions and etc., there is a free one available that I tried today and it seems to do a good job. Someone on the Warrior forum described it
here (http://www.warriorforum.com/war-room-private-discussions/120956-brilliant-free-screen-recorder-tool.html).

Videos help in selling. They make it easier to learn and can increase your sales. :D

Happy shooting!

Thanks Alton for the link. Unfortunately, I cannot access it as I am not a Full Warrior Member. Could you pass along a link to the actual web site? Thank you. :)

This sounds great.

The link is http://www.bbsoftware.co.uk/BBFlashBack_FreePlayer.aspx
You do have to register to get a code to fully unlock the program.
Downside is it appears that the free version is watermarked with a link to their website.
