I see all of you using some REALLY excellent stocks, and I can't seem to find stuff half as good. I know some of you take your photos yourself, but others, where do you get your stock photos from? Thanks.

I get most of my stocks from MotB's stock pack (which I don't think is up anymore), and just from Google. You can also find quite a few nice stocks on Deviant Art, but you'll have to get permission to use most of those.
If you don't mind paying a little bit, there are a lot of pay sites that have some really excellent stocks. I can't think of any right now, but if you just search 'stock image' I'm sure you'll find some.

Ah, depends what I'm looking for, really. Some of the stocks, I've taken myself from all my travels or I just search on Google.

Though, for some very good stocks/textures, go to--> http://resurgere.deviantart.com/

Yeah, I suggest you don't use stocks from DeviantArt. You will be suspended if found using anything from there without proof of permisssion from the Artist. We call it Ripping.

Also, I am rehosting a brand spanking new version of my stock pack for you lot.

You mean you're sharing it with everyone?

And actually, I used a copyrighted stock in one of my sigs a while back, but I had found it on a stock pack, and I found out that it was copyrighted from Arget Wyrda.. Sooo, is there a difference if you don't know whether it's copyrighted or not?

If it was in a stock pack then you were not to know.

I am sharing my stock resources with folk yes, not my entire collection of resources however.

I get them from design forums or free stock sites, because the stock monkeys there already filter out the copyrighted ones for me.
