Acclaim Images Reviewer's Comments

Acclaim Images Stock Photography, owned by Fred Voetsch, offers a large selection of stock images that are available either royalty free or rights managed. This site also provides direct access to their photographer's websites to request commissioned work or rights restricted images.

Feature Set:  

Acclaim Images offers stock images and some stock illustrations. They offer a variety of resolutions and some media management tools such as a lightbox. They allow you to email the image before purchase and you can copy the watermarked image for experimentation.

Some of their isolated images come with a clipping path, however, they cost almost $80/ea whereas for less than $100/month PhotoObjects.net offers pre-masked images.

Search/Sort Options:  

Acclaim's search function offers several filters including by license and image type and it can search by keyword, photographer or by topic.

Quality:  

There is a wide variety of quality levels available through this site, ranging from nearly amateur to experienced photographers.

Selection:  

This service offers many photos, as well as the option to purchase posters or prints. However, they do not offer a wide variety of concept images or popular collections. They also do not offer special interest images such as editorial or photojournalism.

Summary:  

This is a good service to investigate if you are looking for a moderately priced one-of-a-kind image. However, this is not a good site for those looking for isolated or photo objects or concept or digitally altered images.
