All you need is a good clean picture and make one...

You could try Google's image search. It usually turns up some pretty interesting results.

I would strongly suggest making sure safe search is on before searching for "razor porn" though, especially if you're at work.

I would love to have a picture of a nice barberpole on a black background in hi-def. Unfortunately I dont have a hi-def camera.

the best thing to do is to browse flickr. you will find a lot of beautiful images, some in high res, maybe not high def but sufficient to use as a desktop background image.

You could always browse B&B's own SOTD pics for something nice.

cool

as long as you're not looking for images to use commercially, flickr is currently the best place on the web in my opinion. and even for professional use I did have cases of simply contacting someone and buying the photo.

for anyone looking for some awesome straight razor photos go to the B&B gallery and look under desktop backgrounds Joel has some of his beauties there in super high resolution so they make excellent background wallpapers

I was going to say ... ASK PERMISSION. Even if the photo is tagged Creative Commons License, it's the gentlemanly thing to do. If it is copyright, you are legally bound to ask.

It might be the gentlemanly thing to ask permission, but I don't believe copyright is an issue if he's only using the image for his personal wallpaper.

+1 I found some old Gillette ads on Flickr and Google Image Search. I copied some of them and made a wallpaper collage using Picasa.
