Dive into the 3D stocks World!

=Princess-of-Shadows:iconPrincess-of-Shadows: reports, August 28
I can't believe so many artists dedicate their efforts and time to create authentic works of art for us to USE freely! In the world of 3D stocks [ most of it unknown to the photomanipulators ] you can find truly inspiring fantasy and surreal elements that could never be captured by a regular camera. And the best part is that most of them come in a transparent background, so we can simply click and drag onto our work. How fun, fast and easy is that?

The ABCs of Stock and Resources!

^Hanratty-Stock:iconHanratty-Stock: reports, July 1

Project Educate

Stock and Resources ABCs!





:iconhanratty-stock::iconlawrencededark::iconlyastri::iconbleedsopretty:


A is for Anatomy this gallery is for photos of parts of the body that do not fall within the ‘full body’ category. Such as hands and legs etc.

B is for Brushes are a massive asset to the digital artists and are available for most applications which can be found in the ‘Application resources’ sub gallery which is here.

C is for Crediting Most resource providers wish to be credited when you use their resources – this is easily done by reading - FAQ #81: How can I make links to other deviants, deviations, or websites?

D is for Download there is a download option on deviations that lets you set a preview size to look at before you decide to download. The download button also lets you download stock and resource packs.

E is for expressions!





F is for Full body the most popular sub category in the stock gallery with Female > Full body having a whopping 126,518 images alone!

G is for Guidelines which stock has to try to ensure a high quality of stock submissions. These can be found here - Stock Image Guidelines.

H is for Help you can get this from either the chatrooms #ARSTOCK or #Resources or the Stock Forum or Resource Forum

I is for imagination one stock photo can inspire many different things –






J is for Jump whether it’s a person or an animal – we all love a good jumping stock photo!





K is for Kimono just one of the variety of stock costumes you can find in the gallery!





L is for Literature Templates



M is for Manipulations probably the thing that makes use of dA’s resources the most – these come in all styles and can be found in the photomanipulation gallery..

N is for News - you can find a full list of resource news at this handy dandy link. If you submit some stock or resource news be sure to tell the GDs so they can see it and promote it.

O is for Objects which can add a special touch to manipulations or can be used as a reference for still life drawings. They can be found in the Objects gallery

P is for Packs - these are a great way to group similar images or resources for easy download – it also helps to keep the galleries tidy.

Q is for Quality - stock and resource submissions should be the highest quality you can manage.

R is for Rules most stock and resource providers have their own set of rules, the basics being credit and let them see the work – be sure to check before you use anything to avoid later upset.


S is for Size stock photos have to be over 600x600 – but the bigger the better – it’s a lot easier to work with a larger photo.


T is for Textures - there are many interesting textures to use on dA and they can be used in most art, from icon bases to manipulations. They have a variety of sub-categories such as wood, rust and water and can be found here.

U is for usability - stock and resources can be used in digital or traditional works –










V is for Variation When people intend to make stock they often have the same ideas but the results vary. For example searching for “Snow White” gets you -



And searching for “leaf” produces



W is for Weather You can create some really great stock photos by just taking photographs of weather and weather conditions.



X is for x-rated nude stock images should adhere to the rules of deviantART –
FAQ #23: What are deviantART's policies on nudity?
FAQ #220: What is Mature Content?
FAQ #249: Are there restrictions on photographs of teenagers or children?


Y is for You there would be no stock or resource category if people didn’t give up their time to provide it for use and we thank you for it. :heart:


Z is for .. . .Zebra Oh yes. What would we list makers do without the black and white beauty? Hats of to the zebras!




Feel free to join us in #ARSTOCK and #Resources all this week!

:heart:

:peace:

Never be afraid to try something new. Remember that a lone amateur built the Ark.
And a large group of professionals built the Titanic.
`Cedarseed:iconCedarseed: Jul 1, 2008, 3:13:54 AM
Wow. Other than that mention of brushes, the Resources gallery seems to have become synonymous with stock and nothing but stock :(
