Style Up Your Site With iStockphoto

iStockphoto is an amazing resource for designers — one which we use constantly here at Squarespace.  We’re testing out an agreement where iStockphoto would make their 3M+ images available for use right within the our environment, and we want to figure out if there’s a fit.

To encourage everyone to give this a shot, enter code 5QUARE101 at iStock to receive a 20% discount.  We’ll be conducting some polls shortly to see how it’s working out.

This is great! I recently used an istockphoto image for the new theme (background, header, other flourishments) on my blog. I want to change up this theme more regularly, so I'll be sure to take advantage of the discount. Thanks! Anitra, www.iloveakiwi.com

Very cool, since iStock raised their prices I've been hesitant to purchase as much from them as I used too, but in the end your supporting others creativity. Good deal.

The discount does not work for existing members?
Tried to buy credits with the code...no luck...?

@Akil we contacted them and confirmed the code. Make sure your using the number 5.

Has this promo expired? Is there any way for an existing customer to get the 20% off?

[Dane Atkinson]

yes should work for existing customers. Try it again we just confirmed with them that its up.

Great news! I've used iStockphoto dozens of times in my duties as an editor/designer at our sports network. If you can figure out a way to make it work, that would be OUTSTANDING!

I absolutely love istockphoto!

Everytime I search for a photo for a project I always find what I am looking for.

The videos are also worth checking out. Most are in HD format and very NICE!

Thanks for the discount, much appreciated :-)

I can't seem to get the discount to work. I'm guessing this does not apply to existing customers. Boo.

Thanks for getting the coupon. Just used it as an existing iStockPhoto customer and it worked fine. (Suggest you cut-and-paste it to avoid typos.) iStockPhoto rocks. When Getty Images was the only game in town we used to pay them zillions for photos and now use iStockPhoto for 99% of our stuff. Getty has also had to become more competitive with their pricing to compete.

Sounds like a great idea. I'm in.

As a new customer, I tried the voucher on the Pay-as-you-go, but it didn't apply any discount.

I guess it expired, but IStockphoto did not indicate this, nor does your blog.

Great partnership idea and one that will clearly drive value for a lot of Squarespace users. Hopefully this will work out!

[Matt Hyatt]

I use iStockPhoto all the time. Love it! I'm not sure if the effort to integrate SS and iStockPhoto is worth a lot of effort, however. The iStockPhoto search engine is pretty good. I'd hate to lose any of that functionality for the small convenience of ordering directly from my SS page.

I had no problem applying the discount in the cart, by the way. Thanks!

I can't stand iStock, Shutterstock...etc etc....so boring. But yeah..I guess that will be useful for quite a lot of people.
