For those of us that don’t want to shell out the $1 or so to use stock photography on our blogs, Flickr has a great solution.

Flickr Advanced Search

There is a VERY hidden section to Flickr called “Flickr Advanced Search“. I would not have known about it if I hadn’t accidentally found about it in Google.

The advanced search feature gives you the ability to search through only the photos that you can use on your websites or products that are licensed under Creative-Commons. The creative-commons license  gives you the ability to edit the photos and use any way you want.

Although a lot of the photos aren’t very high quality, there are a lot of great ones that will do just fine. I have used many of these photos as backgrounds in my product designs.
