When you write a blog post, what do you do for images? Do you create your own? Do you take your own photos? Do you use stock photos (free or paid?) What's your favorite site to use? I create my own images, and don't usually use photos. I use PicMonkey to create a colorful, text driven image that usually has a bit of clip art or illustrator image to help draw attention to it. Here's a recent one I did that I love - (I got the zombie picture from Pixabay.com)

I am a huge fan of Dollar Photo Club ! I get plenty of quality images to choose from. Since I've started using it my blogging life has been a lot better.

I usually use my own, however I'm a big fan of Unsplash! There are lots of really good places, I've listed 9 of them here (including Unsplash).

I use images from thestocks.im/Then, I edit them with Powerpoint to add my blog post titles. Basic but effective.

I almost always use/create my own photos. When my husband does posts on our blogs, he'll use free stock images for now, but once we're at sea, we'll pretty much use our own stuff. I always used GIMP for editing, but now that we're going all out, we got photoshop and premiere pro, so I'm trying to learn everything I can so I can use those instead.

We're creating our own images using Photoshop. Or we take screenshots for tutorials. However, I created a resource with image sites and tools for bloggers. You can download your own at: happybloggerplaza.com/resources/
