Docking station photos?

[woody649]

Does anyone here use a docking station with either a laptop or a tablet? I'm looking for some good photos of docking stations (preferably the newer, universal type docking station, but I'll take some of dedicated docking stations, too) for use in a book I'm toying with.

If you have or can take a photo or three and are willing to allow me to use it/them in a book, please let me know, and let me know how you would like the photo credit worded.

It's funny because I went looking for docking stations a couple of weeks ago and was surprised that the search results were full of "docking stations" for external disks rather than something one used to plug a laptop into for extra ports and stuff. If you are having difficulty finding images also it may be that they don't make laptop docking stations any longer...


Hmmmmm.....let me go check that...


Ahhh-HA!!!! I wasn't using appropriate search terms last time I checked. I just tried searching (via duckduckgo.com) using 'laptop docking station' (do use single quotes) and...


TaDah!!!




Fingers crossed the above proves useful...'-}}

I've done that search, Terrie. I know the devices are out there. But I'm looking for photos that I can use in a book, without infringing on anyone's copyrights. So I can't just grab images off the Internet, I have to find people who are actually using the things and try to persuade them to take photos for me. (And allow me to use said photos without compensation -- but with attribution if requested or desired).

Mr. Freud would have enjoyed that. A slip of a thing, a slip of the fingers, but fun all the same.

Fixed. Overall, a curiously appropriate error.

Many (most, some, all?) via search images have web page/sites associated with the image(s) often with contact info so perhaps find likely images and ask for permission to use...
