I was looking for a price for something and encountered an really odd stock image. I looked further. I have no idea who would use some of these. There is sometimes a kind of theme, but the image looks ghastly all the same. I guess there's no accounting for taste. Got any of your own gems?

Pretty creative. But I remember my odd photos weren't approved at sxc.hu due to "not useful as a stock image".
I wonder if anyone has ever used any of these?
