Finding photos and images for your website can be time consuming but featuring great looking images on your website is such a big part of making your web design look beautiful. There are a ton of paid services that will gladly allow you to license an image for a single use and charge you a hefty fee. Today I'm going to share with you ten places you can find free stock images that can be used for commercial purposes.

1. Flickr.com

Flickr has a nice search filter that allows you to choose photos by license type. If you choose the option "Commercial Use Allowed" you can pretty much go to town downloading any of those images. You'll find many high quality photos can be downloaded in very high resolutions. Once you find a photo you want to download click on it, and then click the download arrow in the bottom right of the the image preview. Lastly choose the image resolution you'd like.

2. AllTheFreeStock.com

This website provides a thorough list of all the other websites you can go to and get free stock pics. But it doesn't stop at offering links to sites who give away free stock images, you can also find a complete list of sites that allow you to download free stock videos. This is definitely one site I'd recommend all web designers bookmark.
