Yesterday I learned about the work of Jakob Nielsen.  He did a study which
showed that people often ignore online generic images, so it is usually
better to add original photography.  Below is a link to an article about
this.

My experience has been that when a blogger uses the same image over and over
again, it alerts me to the fact that he/she is trying to establish a certain
mood.  

Anyway, some food for thought.
