Adobe to stop Stock Photos ...
Adobe will halt all operations for its royalty-free Stock Photos image repository as of April 1st, the company has announced. Some aspects will terminate earlier however, specifically the search and comp download features in Adobe Bridge, which will cease to function as of March 3rd. Remaining components, such as order histories, image purchase and re-downloading, will only stop on March 31st.

The company notes that while the licenses for Stock Photos images will not be invalidated after April 1st, attempting to secure more images from the same sources may prove difficult, as people will need to contact the original distributors themselves.
