We've often been told that one of the most difficult and time consuming aspects of creating great e-learning
is find the right image. As we know, a picture often speaks a thousand words. That's why we've done a deal with Jupiter Images and created our very own brand new online picture library. It currently features over 1200 free images for you to use in your own e-learning but this will grow because, in true Learning Pool style, we've added in the facility for you to upload your own images to the library for others to share too.
You can edit the images you choose by cropping, resizing, flipping, blurring or embossing them and you can save your image as a jpg to use in mobile devices such as an MP3 player or mobile phone.
Tell us what you think of the new picture library. We're looking for feedback on everything from the type and number of images available to the editing facility and anything else in between. Thank you.

John Roughley started out working at a photographic laboratory in the pre digital age. He explains, "It was a small
company so I got to move around and see the different aspects of the job. The lab used to process work for professional
photographers, so I've probably seen more wedding and school photographs than most people do in a lifetime!"
