image library zipped cd

308 views3 repliesLast post: 5/3/2005
I am trying to find image resources for creating photomosaics. I have found plenty of sites where I can download free images, but the amount of images I need is huge (1000s) and they don't need to be any more than 200 pixels wide or high. What I'm trying to find is a downloadable archive of images that is in one zip file because saving each image one-by-one is taking forever.

Any help would be great!

Ps - apologies if this is a bad place to post, but I thought that the photoshop community would be best people to ask.

Even if you find one, zipping image files usually won't save much space. Sometimes the files can even be larger.

The OP wants a zip file so that they only need download one file, not to save space.

Why not get friends who are into Photoshop to all download about one hundred, or a few hundred each. After that, you could get together and burn them all to a CD, and you'd all have access to them any time you needed them. Good idea?
