Sports Illustrated has launched a new web site featuring the magazine's photography at sipictures.com. The site was designed for photo editors, art buyers and corporate clients interested in licensing the images that have been appearing in the magazine since 1954.
The inventory is drawn from Sports Illustrated's archive of more than 3 million pictures. The online gallery, which will be updated continuously, contains a broad range of sports images, from athlete portraits to behind-the-scenes coverage of major sporting events. Among the photographers represented are the magazine's 18 current staff photographers, as well as more than 100 of its contributing photographers, including Walter Iooss Jr., Neil Leifer, John Zimmerman and Hy Peskin.
