hi,i was over at cgchannel and read an article of cg artists working in shanghai,they had a picture of the city at night with all advertisment lighting.anyway,i wanted a picture of a city at night so i can add my own city lights and neon signs and fake advertisement.you know like your own logo on top of a building glowing over the city and so on,my problem is that i can not find a city photostock,i wanted to print out a poster size around 36 by 28,but i can't find a photostock of a city at night with hi-res.i've searched,photoimage,corbis and a few others and cant find any,does anyone know where i can find such a photo? or is my only choice is to pay a cg artist to make me a futuristic city for me? if anyone can help me with an idea please let me know,thank you.
june.

Your best bet might be a photography site like pbase.com . They have reasonably high resolution images of just about anything you can imagine and I'm sure you'll find a city at night amongst their photos.

Just make sure to respect the copyright if you use something from there!

Your "location" says: New York.
Why not shoot it yourself? That would make your artwork more personal and therefore more interesting also.
