    I assume you've perused the photos in the forum gallery?

    Obviously, no matter where you get the photo, you should ask permission to use it if at all possible.

    Sites such as ESG's danceportraits have some gorgeous photos - but of course they're copyright, although you could always buy one I guess...

    Otherwise, have you thought of taking some yourself?

    Photo ownership is a complex and dangerous area - someone like FeelingPink may be able to better advise you on this one.

    I did look in the forum gallery, i have seen some that are nice but prefer to have a legal picture so people dont get angry with me.

    I know it is very dodgy area regarding trying to find a picture that is perfect as copyright and owner's permission etc .. so i will wait and see what other people say.

    Assuming that you buy the rights to publish it, of course...

    You could always hire a photographer -- as long as you get them to sign a copyright assignment.

    You could use stock images from a free to use library.

    Or you could use flickr (or other websites) and use images that have an associated creative copyright licence that is compatible with your website (*). You should probably take some steps to keep a copy of the webpage, in case the creator changes its terms and conditions (later on).

    When you find a picture that you like, but if it is in colour, I can't imagine that changing it to a B&W image would be too difficult? Most computers have software that lets you do that.
