I have an idea for a website but it is predicated on the use of celebrity photographs. From what I've seen online it isn't legal to do such things. So my question is if anyone knows a way to purchase a large database of photographs. I'm certainly willing to pay(depending on how much it would cost) Thanks

If the above is a no-go, you can always use Getty images, or search for images that are party of "public domain". That may actually be easier from the get go.

This was posted on HN not terribly long ago. (Probably 18 days ago by the dating on my posterous account.) I didn't keep the link to the HN post, so there probably was no discussion on it at that time. A search of HN did not turn it up but I thought I had sent it to myself to keep as a resource and I had. (If you are better at searching HN than I am, maybe you can find it and maybe it has discussion.)
HTH.
