Licensing
All the images that you will come across from the sites we refer to have restrictions. You are free to download and use them, but often you can’t edit them or distribute them. It is important that you always oblige to the licensing terms of any image.
Different creators often have different licenses based on how they want their work to be used. So always take note.
You wouldn’t be happy if someone came to your site and stole all your content and images, so please respect the fact that the photographers are giving away their work and always oblige to the terms.
If you don’t not only can it cause you headaches but it can hit you financially. As you will have broken the law they can take legal action against you. So if you don’t want to risk being fined thousands of pounds or dollars then tread the line.
