Accessing Photos:

  1. All photos can be viewed by any visitor to the website.

  2. You must register and meet our client criteria to be granted access to high-resolution photos:

  3. Each request is assessed individually, based on the proposed use.

  4. Upon approval, you will be issued a username and password via email. (Our system generates your username and password combination - you cannot make up your own username and password).

  5. Registrations and photo requests are monitored on an hourly basis during regular business hours, Monday through Friday, 8:30 a.m. - 4:30 p.m. Mountain Daylight Time.

  6. You only have to register once! The username and password assigned to you allows you to login, request and download photos as required:

  7. A limit of 10 photos per request has been set to ensure zipped files are kept to an acceptable size - so that servers / email gateways will accept your request with attached photo(s).

  8. Users may make more than one request per day [i.e. if more than 10 photos are required].

  9. Photos are delivered as high-resolution jpgs with watermarks removed. The majority of our photos are a minimum of 5" X 7" in size, 300 dpi.

  10. REMEMBER! Photos are emailed to the originating requestor's email address. For example, if you are an ad agency with numerous graphic artists working on a project - the photos will be sent to the email address of the person who originally registered and requested the images.

  11. Requests for high-res drum scans are available and can be made via the Photo & Video Library. Images are delivered via CDRom. Scanning and courier costs will apply.
