Top Ten Stock Photo Cliches

You have to love a good stock photo cliche (via). My favorite on the list has to be this one:
3. The Big Thumbs of Triumph: Good job, ace. You’ve saved the company again.
The pictures add a lot of course.

Oh man, that’s so true. Kitschiness in photos, especially on generic company websites, has been taken to a new level of annoying. I’m glad the “giant’s POV” cliche was included cause that’s my absolute worst.
I think people in general are getting progressively less creative. For example, next time you ride down the highway count how many company billboards have a woman -who’s completely unrelated to whatever company- smiling at you.

I think my fav is “The United Colors of Megacorp.” Am I to belive that every corporation in America has a black dude and an asian chick working on a project for a wheelchairbound albino?
