Image Assistance

[Guest Dabeagle]

I need an image or two to announce stories in progress, completed stories and some that are on hiatus. If anyone knows a place I can locate such things or is so inclined to produce them from whole cloth, please shoot me an email dabeagle at dabeagle.com

many thanks!

I have always wondered where the images come from that are inserted into stories.

Me too. Maybe Des could write a tutorial for those of us who need it. In his spare time, of course.

Those are neat ideas, though I'm not sure everyone would get them without alegend of some sort. I'm afraid my aspirations were much smaller...perhaps the words with some kind of color explosion behind them so as to attract notice.

I misunderstood, obviously. I thought you were talking about photos within stories. You mean buttons or icons like WBMS said, right?

For years, I've used www.dreamstime.com as our AD visual source. Used to be a dollar a pic...but has gone up a couple times. They do offer some free stuff but for a none time shot a couple of dollars wouldn't be bad.
