Don't be so hard on him. Posting a new thread about a certain topic every 2 months or so lets people post their ideas without reviving old threads from the grave, which I can't stand!

I wasn't trying to be harsh, just blunt. I edited it and added a Smiley...

I know about Detonation films, but their Stock footage is not very good. I found this page: http://www.artbeats.com

I promise you that i have never ever seen such good looking stock footage! But its not for free, and the strange part is that 30 clips costs 499$ but 1 clip costs 149$? Very strange

Yeah yeah. We've all seen artbeats before. If you have hundreds of dollars to pay for a stock clip, then go for it. Most of us don't.

www.videometry.com gives you a free clip each week if you sign up for their site, whcih is also free. You've got nothing to loose. Although many of the clips are nature related.

I've built up a pretty good stock footage library of outdoors and urban scenes by downlaoding free weekly clips for the past 5 or so months. :D

Although right now they are cycling through clips from their "people" and "food" series, which is kind of useless and stupid. if I want a pic of a chef or food, I could go down to a cafe! lol :mrgreen:


And what's DC++?

Uhhh, you do realize that good quality stock footage is ussually in excess of 40 or 50 megs, right? That would be a little to big to send as an attachement.
