Welcome to a whole new kind of Image Subscription

We understand that as print designers, stock images are used to create backgrounds, textures, showcase products, etc. We want to make sure that the designers that use us to print all of their created material have the best resources available to them. We recently came across another stock image repository.

Thinkstock is a comprehensive collection of select royalty-free photos, vectors and illustrations from Getty Images, iStockphoto and Jupiterimages. The collections that can be downloaded are subscription based. We had a chance to look around and they have thousands of images. They allow you to download up to 25 images a day / 750 images a month. And once you’ve used an image, you can keep using it – over and over – in future projects. If you take full advantage of the 750 images a month, the price per image works out to be less than $.30.

Visit Thinkstock and start your collection of stock images
