Wow i just checked findicons and I did find some great stuff to add to my site. Thanks Engage! I will take a look at the older posts as well and check what the others have recommended. 7 long pages to check LOL
Great post! I use iStock but man oh man does that get expensive! I've been trying to take a lot of my own pics to use in blog posts but well I don't always have my camera with me & my cell doesn't take great pics or I can't always find something to snap a pic of that represents what I want an image to represent.

I use my own photos on my blogs either taken with my Nikon D40 or more recently my trusty iPhone which is always with me.
When giving examples of products the way I do it is to use LittleSnapper to grab a screen shot of the affiliate product (from my affiliates page) then I place it on a plain white background and add a black edge in Photoshop and adjust all the settings to ensure it's properly sized for the web ( to ensure it only takes between 1-3 seconds to load and looks good online.)
