Hi guys, I am new here and I was just wondering if you all could help me. I just found my interest in creating blogs and I just wanted to ask for some advice.
Where can I find great images for my blog that is related to cars? Those are my favorite, and what do images do you guys suggest for a personal blog. Thanks in advance

There are heaps of free image sites online that might have the images you seek.  Have you tried the websites for the cars you're interested in?

There is at least one thread here for stock images.

Here is one for stock photos

There is a wealth of information there and if you can't find something that suits in one of the links in that thread, then the photo you're looking for probably doesn't exist yet  

As for the image for a personal blog, do you mean the header graphic/picture ???? I guess that really is a matter of personal taste and if there is some particular direction that you think your blog might take, for instance, cars.

And welcome to the Forum too.

Yes, is it ok to use those images?

That will depends on the individual site or individual image. It's safer to ask permission first if you're not sure, I would think.

On Flick.r there is a stock of photos you can use - all you need to do is acknowledge ownership (ie. provide a link to their page on Flick.r which you get to by clicking on their link).  It's called an attribution license.  Here's the link to the index for those images.

You just time in what you are searching for in the search box.  Hope this is what you were after.
