Finding new free photos for your content is not easy. With copyright issues coming in and Google always trying to remove copyright materials from its search results, it is becoming harder and harder.

What sort of free photos you are looking for?

People who are looking for free photos is mostly looking for stock quality images. They might be for using in their college work or maybe for using in their artworks.

If it's for artworks or other things, some are searching for vectors instead of images. If you are a UI designer or a developer, chances are your are in the search of icons.

So here are top of my picks regarding the free photos/vectors and icons.

Unsplash.com

Unsplash.com is one of the best free images site available on the internet

Undoubtedly, one of the best free images offering site. It has a sleek and clean UI. Site loads really fast. You can download images without an issue instantly. No ads at all. Easy to find images. Great results.

Vecteezy.com

Best source for people who are looking for free vectors. There are thousands of illustrations freely available for the designers. If you want, you can even purchase premium designs at a lower price as well.

Iconspedia.com

This is the best source of icons you can find. They have both premium and free icons. What's even better is you can download icon packs in one go. That would be really easy for people who are looking forward to download icons together at once.

These are my most used sites which I use all the time. What are yours? Let me know if you use anything specific which is not listed above in the comment box.

As I mentioned earlier in one of my blog post, designers face a critical issue while trying find good images for their designs. Previous blog post, I have mentioned few sites which are offering free stock images. Today I'm going to tell you about another service which offers free stock images. 

This service is Dreamstime. Actually Dreamstime is a royalty free stock image offering site. But , if you registered with them as a free user,  you can access their free stock images category. They are offering thousands of free images (but I must warn you. They are not in good quality as payed images). But something is better than nothing. You can use those images for your projects without paying anything at all.

So give it a try. Here is the URL :
