Have made this shortlist (see screenshot). Perhaps good to get your designer to assess whether they will work?

The images above cost to download. Do we have an account?

tkeuneman commented 6 years ago

Data61 doesn't have an account and we'd probably only use these images for Data.gov.au, so I think it falls under DTA. :)

stephencannings commented 6 years ago

Looks like twenty20 does subscription instead of paying for pics a la carte. This is a problem I think. Will look for these images elsewhere. Did you get your current ones free?

tkeuneman commented 6 years ago

Yup, they could have changed their pricing structure.

stephencannings commented 6 years ago

As I now need to get cost approval, this ticket has slowed. Carryover for next sprint?

@stephencannings Images that I have sourced are below

Hi folks,

I have some additional images and will implement some of them in a branch for testing.
