images, free, optimised, hosted
A colleague has mentioned that he previously found a website which held free for commercial use images. It hosts the images and they were well optimised. Rubbish I though. Convinced by his source (and of course unable to remember the name). It's a tall order I thought but if it does exist, it's worth knowing about. My challenge to you? ...name that site! Anyone? |

Unfortunately not. The site in question - which I dubious as to whether it exists - hosts optimised images with small (web designer friendly) dimensions on a variety of topics. www.sxc.hu is basically a royalty free and free for use image stock. The images are not optimised and the dimensions can be big. Thanks for the suggestion anyway. |

haha I was going to say the same, shrink the effin images, problem solved innit? As for hosting them - you honestly have no webspace? Its like saying, "I don't want this giant cake, I just want a slice" - get a knife. Last edited by Dusteh : 17-11-2006 at 12:02. |
