Stock image resources - others? Can't Post

Not real sure what is the correct forum to post this, hopefully this one is kosher.

I have used a variety of stock image sites in the past, and stumbled across a few others thanks to a recent Slashdot article. Just thought I'd share.

Free:
Stock Exchange (http://sxc.hu) 100,000+ quality high-res images. Excellent resource!
Morguefile (http://www.morguefile.com) Don't know much about this one, but have seen it highly recommended on several sites.
DHD Multimedia Gallery (http://gallery.hd.org/index.jsp) Smaller collection.
BurningWell (http://www.burningwell.org) Small collection.
DeviantArt (http://www.deviantart.com) A huge collection of basically anything creative - Not sure what is considered royalty-free though.
Internet Archive (http://www.archive.org) Pretty wide variety of media here.

Pay:
iStockphoto (http://www.istockphoto.com) $1.50 or less per image, 180,000+ images.
Artbeats (http://www.artbeats.com) Duh.

What resources do YOU use? What about stock footage? With the exception of archive.org, I have yet to find a great resource for stock footage...something aimed at editors. I've got clips I'd love to share, and many times have had need for specific shots. Surely there are quality low-cost or free sites out there...

Here is one witha small demo http://cgi.ebay.com/...ageName=STRK:MEWA:IT And I am slowly building a links database of video resources here http://www.bobcosta.com/menumap.php?Links=410
