I have a friend that has been reading my blog and is now interested in starting her own.  I’m trying to get her started so she’s working on a domain/blog title, and I’m working on her design.  I have in mind in general what I want to really fit her, but I’m having a hard time finding the just right blog pictures to use in her header and background for her theme.  I’ve spent a few days searching for just the right thing (and wishing I was able to actually draw digital graphics).  Today I discovered a new site for graphics that I had never looked at – Acobox.  

She’s a teacher and planning to focus on education so I’m thinking of using this one that I found on Acobox:
I think that it has great potentiol.  I really like that it’s simple and not animated.  Most of the graphics I was finding the last couple days were either very detailed or cartoonish, and she didn’t like those.  I’m anxious now to see if I can incorporate this one after she gets her domain and such purchased so we can really begin the fun part.

If you’re just looking to add a picture to your site (say in a post), Acobox will be great for that.  They have made sure that all images are properly licensed.  Also you don’t have to upload the image to your site.  You can choose the information (size & alignment) and then just copy the correct code over so that the image is always hosted on their site.  How convenient is that?
