Question
Where do you get photos and graphics for your designs?
Now that Unsplash was recently acquired by Getty, I've been looking around at other stock photo options—and was pleasantly surprised to find that Noun Project has photos, too, now.
Do you have any stock photo sites you love and use in your design work?

Oh, that's a nice resource! I don't see so many good icon repositories.
For photos, I discovered Pixabay while building my digital garden recently:

There's also the surprisingly little-known Flickr Creative Commons search:
https://www.flickr.com/creativecommons/
Although most images there do require some kind of attribution.
Another free resource is Pexels (https://www.pexels.com/), which is now owned by Canva (as is Pixabay I think).
If you're looking for illustrations, check out https://undraw.co/ - it has a great feature that allows you to set a primary color and automatically adjusts all its illustrations accordingly.
Oh that is nice, thanks for sharing!
I have an ongoing list of sites with free images for commercial use. I'm always looking to update the list, so if anyone has new sites, please let me know.

Curious if anyone has any new, favorite survey tools? Are you mainly using Survey Monkey, Typeform and Google Forms?

Yeah, Noun Project is great for icons.
Flickr's Creative Commons search must be one of the original free photo sources online. Tends to be a tad dated and lower quality nowadays, but still a good place to check for sure!
