Very New, Need Resources for a Project

[Whootsinator]

I've looked and looked, and can't find anything good... I need images of firearms/guns with transparent backgrounds to use. Maybe I'm just not searching for the right thing. Black silhouettes or photographs. PREFERABLY .svgs, or something similar that will resize cleanly.

I'm attempting to make a banner for forum and an image to print on T-Shirts for a local club that needed something quick.

Can anyone help me out, or give me somewhere the look? Thanks.

IstockPhoto ( Stock Photography: Search Royalty Free Images & Photos ), tons of them!

Just a quick search for AK-47 gave me 247 images, many with a plain background that can easily be removed, often with resolutions all the way up to 4000 pixels. Some images are even in vector format.

Sure, you have to pay for it, but in case you didn't know; most photos you find on the internet have copyright on them.

If you want it free? Go ahead... you'll hardly find anything descent and what IS descent is most likely copyrighted without you even knowing it. Be aware though, some stock photo companies that own these copyrights have huge fines, Getty asks $1000 USD for each stolen image and from what I've read on several forums, they are determined to get it! ;)

Thank you very much for the quick reply.

Anyone else with recommendations, I'd appreciate them.

I can't seem to erase the background from silhouettes cleanly, it always leaves white on the edges, when attempting to transfer from white to another color. I really prefer already having a transparent background.

While I've already tried a google search once, I did find an awesome site thanks to looking again.

Nearly ALL transparent backgrounds, .svg format, awesome!
