Either search on Google images or get either a friend or a freelance person to do it for you. Please make sure that if you do that you provide as much information as possible. It would be very annoying if you both have a different idea.

You can always just make 1616 (just make it small) pixel based images. There quite easy to make (I am a developer my-self who also hates to do the graphics). Just make sure that you than write your code dynamically (no hard-coding the 1616 size but putting it in property's)

You can ask google about the images or the flickr. Make sure also to choose images that are "labeled for commercial reuse", or if you are in flickr look for "Creative Commons" images. Spam removed

Resulting to not remove your spam will result in suspension from the site or face even drastic actions. -lockergnome.net moderator
