Hi All!

I have been a member of ArtToday for some time and while I agree that they
didn't have that many good photos they opened a new site last fall --
photos.com
This new site, for a yearly fee, has some really good stock photography.
The site only charges extra if you are needing an extremely high resolution
image.

Also, Art Today has an affiliation with rebelartist.com that has images at a
pretty reasonable rate most of the time. But it is per image.
