Good Question > Images on Stickers



We had a good question from one of our members yesterday. She attended the FITC Event and picked up some of our sweet swag. We had a bunch of wicked buttons and skater stickers. They asked if the images on the stickers were part of our stock archive collection to license. The answer is yes! Here is the link to the skater image files, and we also included some matching surfer dudes and chicks. The XL file is in Vector format which is a single file download, however if you are an illustration or dual subscription member, you can download any Small, Medium or Large file on-demand for the duration of your term. Go take a look. Skaters and Surfers

Industry news: CSTC "Fades to black".



Now this is a real shame. We were extremely shocked and saddened to see that the Canadian Screen Training Centre (CSTC) has been forced to close its doors due federal and provincial funding cutbacks. It actually hits us hard as my previous company (MõSHON Digital Media Inc.) sponsored and worked very closely with the CSTC and SIFT in the 1990's.

The CSTC, founded by Tom Shoebridge in 1981, trained more than 7,000 screen professionals and had offered some 600 workshops from coast to coast.

Shameless Promo : Our new ad campaign



You lucky dog! We are getting set to launch our new ad campaign and promotion offer. The ad campaign as you can see is revolving around our lucky little "hot dogs". These slick photos from our collection were carefully treated and colour managed to give them that special pop!

Something to think about...

Think about what $100 worth of credits at other sites gets you.... yea, not a whole lot! $100 bucks with Stock-Archive.com gets you on-demand access to thousands of high quality images. Not only that, you can choose to download either small, medium and large files within that subscription. Just search, click and download.
