Hey all,

Quick question: I want to incorporate muscle cars into my designs and need "royalty free" photos. Anybody have a good source that they use or know of? I'll be setting the threshold high for effect so it won't be photo realistic.

That's a great site, thank you. But do you know of a site that has 60's and 70's muscle cars? Thanks.

To be more exact...real photos that are royalty-free.

you will be hard pressed to find royalty free photos. Your best bet is to go to as many car shows as possible and take the photos yourself. Its not the best advise but if your manipulating th ephotos so highly as to not be able to recognize the original photo your probably going to be covered. As long as you cannot hold your manipulation next to the photo and tell they arefrom the same image.

One thing you can do is search for photos on the net (google). email the webmasters and ask for permission. just make sure you get it in writing. Most will be happy especially if you offer them a copy of the art or a shirt.
