I am newer to the e-learning community and storyline. The courses that we use are very text heavy and am looking to enhance them with images. Any suggestions for good resources? I am not looking to create my own images but would like a good resource of where people get images for the course they create.
Depends a little on what I'm looking for. I build a lot of concept diagrams and visual "sentences", for these a good icon set or set of icon fonts is handy. These can be found in lots of places. I keep an eye on http://www.mightydeals.com/ for packages at discounted prices. I'll usually find something to use a set item for.
I also like http://graphicriver.net and the sister stores on the envato market. You'll need to keep an eye on the license type. Most of my purposes require an extended license.
There's quite a bit of stuff in the public domain that can be useful as well. The US National Archives posts a ton of stuff to Flickr and you'll find some images at wikimedia commons. Paired up with some decorative elements like stuff you'll find at http://www.vectorian.net/, you can build some striking thematic compositions.
