Is there any other low-price online stock photo agency that's worth a look?

Thanks, Hombre! I appreciate the help.
Do you favor one of these agencies over the rest for any reason? Who's your real "go to" stock company?

depends on what you need.. sometime something like cgtextures helps, when you just need something for the compositing...

the thing is.. they are not that low-price anymore..
Some photos are now 5-10 credits which is like 5-10 bucks or more considering their 50 credits is like $75.
You can barely find any more images that are like 1 or 2 credits, and those are what made istockphoto famous..
shutterstock is also pretty expensive.
sxc.hu might be the real successor to old istockphoto.com
- Well, most of the decent images are still under $20. And the client pays. So it's not that big a deal.boobs

Unfornately Boobs, just about all of the stock photo agencies are owned in some way by Getty Images....
