Online Photo Resources

[PhaedrusZ2004]

Hi all,

In response to the Sticky about where to get photos, I'll let you know a little trick:

Find photos online, magazine photos are the best. Search Altavista, Yahoo, or Google in the "Images" section for (celeb name), scans, wallpaper.

Here are also some great sites:

http://www.celebritycd.com/
http://www.celebrityhotspot.com
http://www.celebrity-wallpapers.com
http://www.edgescans.com
http://membres.lycos.fr/fangraphica/
http://www.rumela.com/
http://wallpaper.com-wallpaper.com/

(On some of these, have a popup blocker installed)

Use a photo editor, if you want, to clean up, crop, and resize the photo. Cleaning them up is optional, but cropping/resizing to a 4:6 ratio is almost necessary.

Now, join Shutterfly (http://www.shutterfly.com). For new members they give away 15 4X6 inch photos. Upload the photos, and wait for the order. S/H is about $2 in the US.

Now you have 15 free professional quality photos to send with your letter, and don't have to pay for them or use any printer ink.

For must haves, I use this route to order 8X10 photos (about $2 per), but for stars that aren't necessary, I use the free photos.


Legal warning: Most of the pictures online are copyrighted, so don't use this if you want to sell the auto, only if it's for personal enjoyment.

Have fun collecting!
