Stockresources, Freefonts + more

Please fave if you find this journal useful

Hy folks,

before I started doing my own art, I was an avid incredimail email- stationary creator. (All legal always with freeware, according to terms, with written permission etc)

For that reason I have collected a massive bunch of pages with stockphotos (free for profit reasons) free & shareware fonts, plugin pages and so on.

I thought that it might be as useful for creating art for some of you.

The quality and resolution of the images varies so check yourself

I met several people who don't know much free stock outside dA.. although dA holds fantastic stock photographers and artists too! one can never have enough choice

As a disclaimer:
