No studying? Damn! Next thing they'll tell me is I'll have to eat jelly doughnuts or sleep with a supermodel to get things done around here. I ask you, how much can one man give?

Not sure if she's old enough but she's smiling and off to the side. There's also picures of the same model in scrubs.

Online subscription services and royalty-free images at stock companies tend to be very whitebread. We've had some success using 123RF.com, but for a lot of depictions of minorities rights managed imagery from Photo Edit Inc. is the selection with the best representation.

A black women's-shaped tee with a good font, please.

It took me a second to parse that not as "a shirt for black women" but instead as "a black shirt for women"

Ha, me too, I was staring at that sentence for a while.

Oh good, not just me.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Thanks askye- that might work!

Also, thanks Matt. I unfortunately have no choice in what service we use- just last year I had to work with Microsoft clip art only! Our bosses don't understand why we just can't save pictures from the internet to use in our print materials! When I started we were using pictures from Corbis with the corbis watermark left on. I asked as was told that the watermark was supposed to be there to "give them credit because we didn't pay for the image".

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

That's convenient! I wish I'd known I could use a watermark in lieu of money.

This might be a long shot, Sophia, but you could try searching for public domain/CC-licensed images?

I could get a three-night trip to Vegas in two weeks with what's in my checking account right now. But I need to pay my rent and continue cleaning out the house. It's nice, though, to think of next summer and how a vacation is not a ridiculous expense.

You should have seen my face! But they are professors, and they thought that it was like citing someone in an article! I don't even ask how they get their pictures for their poster presentations or powerpoints.

Flea, I am actually logged on to cafe press right now in hopes of putting up MALARKEY! Shirts. Also COME ON! We're America! Shirts.

So hive, if anyone would like to create a file for me (I have no design software and can't do this from work anyway). I am happy to give one of you my cafepress log in info to look at requirements/specs. All the things I have on there are board inspired from a million years ago and need to be redone as the cafepress options have become more robust and these old files do not print as nice as the new stuff allows.
