Well, I love art, I make some small art myself. Thank you sketchbook and my tablet :) But I love art by other artists as well. My players are starting a new campaign and I'm collecting as much as I can for the npc's. I can't draw 100+ npc's in a month.
I remember there used to be a site that collected character portraits. I had them all before the big crash of 2k5 (my hard disk crashed and I had no back up :'( ). So far my googling has proven unsuccesful. If anyone knows the site I'm talking about I would love a link. I'm sure I'm not the only one that could use it :).
My group and I have been using a Romanian artist who does some great stuff. We've comissioned him to do some of our pc's and we've all been completely satisfied. You can check out his work at www.avatarart.com.
Not sure if this is the site you meant, but there are a lot of character portraits in the Wizards archive (originally from Dragon I believe):

Something else you can do is download the web enhancements of various issues of Dungeon; it has the artwork from the magazine in it, including the character portraits.
You might check out elfwood

Tons of people post D&D character portraits there, and also lots of people do commissions, if you want something specific.
