Celebrities vs. Stock

June 12, 2008 · Print This Article

We never use celebrities for any of our Graphics, but many do - we can’t personally offer celebrity images to use in graphic design; however we do have a lot of stock photographs.

We have roughly 50GB (basically… quite a few thousand) of stock photographs. What we want to know is;

  • Do you use stock?
  • Would you like access to our stock?
  • What do you prefer using? Celebrity images vs. stock images.

Just a random photograph (aka stock photographs) which I had on my desktop - either Rosanna took this or I did…. but we have many things alike and much more.

Almost all of our wallpaper images have all been taken by one of us - the recently added ones were taken by myself and Rosanna… and there is tons more around.

If you’re at all interested, answer the few simple questions - if we get good feedback, it’ll be another addition!

    Holy moly Olivia, LTY is looking absolutely amazing.

    In answer to your questions..
    Do you use stock? Yes, I love stock.
    Would you like access to our stock? Definitely =D
    What do you prefer using? Celebrity images vs. stock images. Stock. Celebrity images are good… fun to retouch and such.. but stock images are great to use, knowing you haven’t stolen images or something. loooool.

    Do you use stock?
    Yup. I love using stock.

    Would you like to access to our stock?
    Yes, that would be awesome. :D

    What do you prefer using? Celebrity images vs. Stock images
    Stock. I personally don’t really like celebrity graphics; unless it’s like an icon or something. Although celebrity images are good to practice retouching and such. I’d rather see pretty scenery/landscapes/ect. when I look at my computer.

    I like stock and would like to access yours - but I wouldn’t make a stock layout. I find it incredibly hard to pull off a stock layout, whilst blending celeb images and such is easy (and fun :P). The stock images just don’t blend and I dunno what to do with them in a layout without it looking boring.

    * Do you use stock?
    Yep.
    * Would you like access to our stock?
    Yes! The example looks amazing!
    * What do you prefer using? Celebrity images vs. stock images.
    I like both, but I find stock usually looks better in layouts and such.

    - Do you use stock?: Yes

    - Would you like access to our stock?
    I would love to be able to use your stock :yep:

    - What do you prefer using? Celebrity images vs. stock images.
    Stock! I don’t really like the idea of a design focussing around a living person. It’s kinda weird =/

    I’d love access to your stock photography! I love them!

    I use stock and would *love* to have access to yours. I understand that people who don’t use stock also need access to it to get new ideas and experiment with it.
