Those don't look like "real people". Those look like badly posed, badly lit hired models on white.
Yes have to agree. At least they're getting their use out of the white seamless.
That front page images is ghastly.
Slow loading with flash gets a -1 from me
Dancing animation that takes more time to load is useless.
People who call isolations "Silos" just bug me, but I'll call that a personal problem on my part. Some are Silhouettes some isolations with under exposed subjects? Silos are for storing grain and farm produce.

But your comment on the front page photo said it best. Noise in the face or is it supposed to look pixelated and crappy for some reason? I don't get it. Front page photos are "ghastly". They change from one poorly exposed photo to another. Use reload to see them. Maybe they intended to have the dust and dirt on the woman's hat?
Go to any selection on the right. Now try to find you way back to the front page? Huh? no link, nothing? Poor design is an understatement.
Search, if you can figure out the trick box that turns into a search box, enter something simple like "hand" and you get 3000 images where every human that has a hand is displayed. Wouldn't someone want a hand to be the subject for the keyword "hand"?
Am I being unfair? OK try "women in red" or woman red" first page has women in green, purple and roughly 50% of any page have women with nothing red!
