5 short links for today #7

morguefile 1. MorgueFile: Despite the morbid and peculiar file name, MorgueFile is a good free stock photo website. It functions both as a photo sharing site where photographers can create portfolios to share their work, as well as a site where you can get royalty free images for your projects. I found their collection a lot better than most other free photo sites.

cgdigg 3. CGDigg: A Digg type social news website for CG and animation news. It’s a new startup and doesn’t have too many active users but a good source for CG related news and articles.

kuler 4. Adobe Kuler: A web application for generating inspiring color themes for various web projects. With Kuler you can experiment quickly with color variations and browse thousands of themes from the Kuler community. A nice tool for graphics designers.
