Anyone have any ideas on where to get a really nice collection of visio shapes, e.g for the following purposes:

  • network diagrams
  • shapes to show solution deployments
  • any other fancy looking diagrams for software development?

Pavel Hruby has some nice stencils for UML and SysML on his site. I use the UML stencils all the time, because they are a lot easier to use than the ones provided by visio.
