We are currently receiving CD's from our vendors with digital images in various formats (one vendor alone sent 15 CD's with high quality images).  Before we use the CD's we ask the vendors to sign a release form that they are the authorized owner/licensee of the images, that they have authority to grant us a license, and they will defend their right of granting in the event that we are sued for copyright infringement.

We didn't have the option of taking our own pictures since we take orders and have products dropped shipped from different factories around the US and Canada.
