[1:00 PM] New Stock Photography Search Service Is Fast, Convenient

CreativePro, the site dedicated to publishing professionals, has announced a new service aimed at making it easier to find stock photography. The new service is called, appropriately enough, Stock Photography. According to CreativePro:

Feeling weary? Perhaps you are drowning in the enormity of the stock photo search project on which you embarked? Swimming across a moat of stock CD's from every vendor under the sun? And yet, somehow, that 'just right' image STILL escapes your grasp? Discard all those CD's that have become the bane of your existence. The bridge over this moat has just appeared.

We have one word for you: http://www.creativepro.com/stocksearch/

Alas, it's a long word, but please do venture onward.

This magical word will take you away to an enchanted place where chaos becomes order before your very eyes. This is a place where kings and peasants, alike, will search for stock photography in harmony. Best of all, you can search near and far (Artville, Corbis, Eyewire, PhotoDisc, and more) in the blink of a horned toad's eye.

Press on- search images to your heart's desire! (Perhaps try "toad"?)

Head over to CreativePro's Stock Photography and check it out!

The Mac Observer Spin: We have checked out the new service and it is very cool and very fast. Definitely a boon for designers. The ability to buy individual pictures, directly from he house so their is not an added surcharge from CreativePro, is also convenient. This will no doubt prove to be a very popular service.
