Stockoon.com - The Best of Free Stock Photos

Tired of using the same generic clip art photos for your web site? Even worse, are you frustrated by trolling through dozens of terrible stock photos? Stocktoon is the answer to your prayers. The creator, Francisco Ruiz, a freelance web and graphics designer, formed the site to showcase the best stock photos he encounters as he does his daily job. The art includes photos, graphics, and icons. And indeed, the photos are very professional; if only you can find the subject on his site- it is still very much in the preliminary stages of development. The site also functions as an informal blog, with Ruiz giving his valuable artistic opinion on the subject matter at hand.

“I started Stockoon so that I could have a place to easily catalog and share the best 5% of online stock photography and graphics that I find while having to go through all the rest for daily projects.”

Stockoon is really a boon for those that use stock photos. It eliminates the hundreds of irrelevant and unprofessional photos circulating on in the web and offers users only the cream of the crop.

How often will photos be updated? The images are great, but if there are only a few categories of subject matter, that doesn’t serve too many people.
