Dollar Photo for stock images. They are closing down as of April 15th. Does anyone use another vendor that comparable? We loved that fact that we could prepay for credits ($1 per image) rather than pay for a monthly subscription.

    Yeah. Pixabay and Pexels are the best sources for free stock photos although paid sites are better like Pixta, Getty and Shutterstock.
