First, note that it helps to change the subject of the email message if you change the topic - I'd stopped reading this thread, thinking it answered. Second... Yes, there are probably thousands, maybe tens of thousands, of stock image companies around the world. I run a very small one myself - http://www.fromoldbooks.org/ - as a spare time income and interest thing. Some of the largest - . alamy.co.uk (can be expensive though) . istock.com . shutterstock.com . dreamstime.com . getty images Many many more. Beware of free image sites for commercial use - usually you have to pay at least a little money so that you can say you had a legitimate right to use the image, if the image turns out to have belonged to someone else. Unfortunately it's common for people to take an image and sell it or post it on a free site saying it was their own. It's not a good time to get into being a stock image company in general, but there are niche markets that can be successful.
