Does anyone have a good place to get free art and graphics? I'm probably the worst artist on the planet, I can't even do stick figures correctly lol.

I don't know about a good, free repository for sprites, but for RPG games, Reiner's Tileset is about as good and complete as it gets. They are 2D isometric, pre-rendered sprites, and they are free to use in free or commercial projects as long as you give him credit.

It depends on what kind of graphics you are looking for. I know of some great royalty free icon sets for websites (Google fam fam fam silk icons). There's a few good stock art websites, but then, you probably don't need stock art.

As far as sprite sheets and tilesets go, be careful because a lot of those sites just let people upload sprite sets from other games. I'm sure there's legal issues with that.

Anyway, maybe you can be a bit more specific as to what you need ? Deviant Art (http://www.deviantart.com/) is a great source for artwork of varying kinds.

right now I'm looking for fantasy and nature sprites/pictures/icons. Mostly just general stuff and nothing specific.

Oh and thanks for the sites given so far :)

@Jack After checking out the site you suggested I remembered being there before. He has got some really nice stuff. thanks for the tip!

Just remember that art work up on Deviantart is not always (or even usually) up for grabs. Some people do offer a way to buy the right to use their art, but then some people make no mention of it at all, which means you cannot use it.
