World Wide Web's Morguefile

Posted by timothy on from the reanimator dept.

mconnors writes "A morguefile is a place to keep post production materials for use of reference, an inactive job file. The term is popular in the newspaper business to describe the file that holds past issues flats although the term has been used by illustrators, comic book artist, designers and teachers as well. The purpose of this site is to provide free image reference material for use in all creative pursuits: the World Wide Web's morguefile."

    Yes, but the deviant art site stock photos may have different licensing. Some of the stock art on DevArt is for internal use only, some of it is for non-commercial etc. From what I understand of Morguefiles is that its all use-however-you-want..
