@wagtail Generally art should be sourced from artists. Find someone in your community willing to donate the time to create the art, the same as the code, or pay them. Find Creative Commons or public domain sources for images @publicdomainrev or image archives provided by public institutions such as museums and other public archives. Consider why you need an image, and if not making effort on the image by using AI will have the impact you expect.

    @davebauerart @publicdomainrev All great suggestions. Archives are definitely a valuable resource for finding images. Stock image sites used to be a good option too for people on a tight budget who want at least some money to flow towards artists. But now those are getting overrun by AI as well. If you hear of any image services or platforms that are aiming to support artists better, please come back and let us know.
