Om Malik has the scoop on PicApp, where you can get legit news photos for free. It’s an interesting service, but I actually prefer to use something like the Voxant, a service that actually pays you for views of the latest news. I like free stuff, who doesn’t, right? Well, it’s even better if they pay you. Here’s sample content from today from Voxant, about the Republicans who have been instructed to blog, blog, blog: [...]

Even as a ‘small guy’, sites like Wire Image have really cheap subscription packages…$10 / month for watermark free pics.

I think there are some flaws here:

  1. If you at all take your site seriously, $10/month is nothing and odds are the ad revenue pays for it anyway.

  2. If you are a 17 year old girl posting celeb pictures to your MySpace page, you probably don’t know any better and will rip images from anywhere you find them.

That leaves this service in a weird limbo where they need people who know better, but can’t justify spending the cost of two beers + tip on their site :-)
