在购买图片的时候，你要注意以下几点：

1. Know what you want, start with a generic idea and get specific as you shop (Remember you probably will not find the exact image that you have in your head, be open to good photos that you find along the way.)

2. Shop around, try the larger agencies try the independents too. (Larger agencies offer more to chose from independent photographers offer more personalized service.)

2.搜索作品时，既要注意大型代理商的作品，也要注意独立经营者的作品。前者可以提供更多的作品，供你选择，后者会提供个性化的作品

3. Know what you're going to use it for, stock photography belongs to the photographer who created it, or the agency, so know what you need it for there can and will be limitations of use.

3.确定图片的作用。图片资料库属于某个摄影者或某个代理机构，使用这些图片时你可能会受到他们的影响，限制使用范围，所以，购买前明确图片的用途。

4. Know what format you need, you only need 72 dpi for the web, be careful that you don't pay for a higher quality when you don't need it. (300 dpi for printing purposes)
