Thanks for sharing all these great resources! I'm also interested in finding page layout templates for Affinity Publisher. I see that last update added the ability to share and download templates. I trying to create an annual report for a government office, so I'm looking for templates to give me inspiration. Perhaps more page layout templates will be shared on these forums in the coming weeks...

Interesting. I opened https://picography.co chose an image and it redirected to https://www.shutterstock.com !

 

Well, you definitely clicked on their sponsored ads! 😀

Much more than an attempt: a big success and immediately bookmarked! Thanks so much, malayali, for this great resource!

Welcome to the Serif Affinity forums :) 

I have removed the link as Distill seem to have no content of their own. WOOBRO design are already listed.

Very good resource.

I would absolutely add in the fonts category https://www.1001fonts.com
It lists both commercial and free, but it is as simple as to click the label just in the search field, so that it becomes "green", and then the results are only free fonts.

I found it important to mention, as IMO, currently, is the best site for fonts. Among other things, because the information for each font is quite in depth, it is better presented, and it has a lot of fonts in the catalog.

Together with https://www.dafont.com   (careful, seems a lot of imitators and even scam sites have appeared with similar names.... THIS one is the right URL)  it is my second choice (used to be the first). You can as well select to have only free fonts results by setting several settings in advanced search. Not as fast as setting it so at 1001fonts, but still, the place has many free fonts.

IMO, these two are an absolute must in that list.... But to each their own.  :)

Among these, special upvote for Unsplash. Very high quality material. Or... I like it a lot.  :D 
Pixabay... I have read people reporting several images not being really free. Also, I have noticed myself several images really being just a hue/curves change of some other free or copyrighted image elsewhere or even in the same site.

Maybe it is a bit less cured than others ? It appears to me so. I don't know, though.  Anyway, is a risk anyone has always with free images for which you don't have a license of whichever type of use/uses, or a document ensuring it is really CC0 (it's a zero, not the "o" vowel). (better than Public Domain, as, it appears public domain is not equally valid in every country). I only say this just to recommend being extra careful... for educational material, though, fair use covers these issues pretty well, my worry is mostly for commercial products, which is most of a designer's/illustrator's output.

The files from commons.wikimedia, and other serious depots with a Creative Commons license attached to each file (but those licenses are often more restrictive than people think) are safe.

While I am at it, another strong recommendation, at the level of Unsplash, it would be https://www.pexels.com . All images are licensed with the site's license (free for commercial and etc), or CC0. So, amazing.

Thanks for the suggestions. But my attempt was to list out not-so-popular sites.
