Title: taopic.com - Huge Preview Size - No Watermarks

This site might be a partner of some agencies because there are huge stockphoto collections.
But, it might be a problem that the images available are around 1000x1000px in size without water marks...
some big names on there too.

Yeah, that's her.
I was able to download this image simply using "save image as...". I could download size 737x1000px.
I tried to download several more images. They are all around 1000x1000px.

This is very big for a free download. :(

Here's some well known ones.
