Design your way

Thursday, February 6, 2014

Finding royalty free stock images and graphics for your design needs has been a difficult and expensive proposition until now. Graphic Stock is a subscription-based service offering unlimited downloads of 150,000+ graphics, images, vectors, templates and more.

Professionals and hobbyists alike will love these high quality, affordable graphics which you can repurpose for personal or commercial use. Let your creativity run wild with a huge library of high quality media at your fingertips!

Who should have a Graphic Stock account?

Anyone in need of royalty free stock images, graphics, textures, icons or templates will benefit from a subscription. GraphicStock.com is a one-stop shop that helps bring your projects to life.

The library is loaded with high quality files used by some of the world’s largest media companies. However, subscription pricing makes this service affordable for hobbyists too. I found a few collections of different design elements that I use regularly in my freelance work.

Here are my 5 favorites:

Infographic Templates

Retro Design Elements

Cool Grunge Backgrounds & Textures

Technology Related Stock Images

Buttons, Labels, Banners and Icons

After spending the last couple days looking around, downloading different files, and working them into projects, I feel like Graphic Stock would be a great resource for anyone interested in improving their design projects, saving time, and ultimately earning more money if you do have a design business. Their blog also has some great content that keeps you up on design trends, and provide some tips for becoming a smarter designer.

How the subscription works

Graphic Stock is the first website to offer this type of service on a subscription basis. They offer a seven-day free trial where you can access the entire catalog and download up to 20 per day to try out the service. Best part about the trial is you can keep whatever you download, even if you cancel before becoming a paying member.

If you decide to continue (I did), the monthly fee is less than you will pay for just a couple graphics on other websites. They’re also constantly updating the library, so even if you don’t see exactly what you want one day, odds are they will add it over time.

There are a few cool things about Graphic Stock that you don’t always see with these subscription places… There are no long-term contracts. You can cancel anytime. They have 24 Hour customer support. All downloaded clips are yours to keep forever. There are no royalty fees, time limits, or any additional costs. You pay only the price of your subscription.
