Have you ever struggled searching the image for your commercial?
I don't know if that's true, but here on steemit we are actually using the images we put in our articles for commercial purposes. Since we earn from the post, so we earn from them, it could be that way.
So... where can you find free images with no restrictions? (Creative Commons Zero)
Pexels
Pexels is my favourite website when it comes to download free images.
Attribution is not required and you can do whatever you want with the photo. You can use them for editing, commercial purpose, personal purpose and so on.
"The only restriction is that identifiable people may not appear in a bad light or in a way that they may find offensive, unless they give their consent" - quoting Pexels.com (click to discover the entire set of rules)
Pixabay
Pexels could be better in quality, but pixabay is for sure the best in quantity and variety. The photo here are pretty good, but the best part is that you'll never find yourself without an image to download.
You can do almost whatever you want with the photos. There are just two restrictions.
The first one is that identifiable people may not appear in a bad light or in a way that they may find offensive, unless they give their consent.
The second one is to do not suggest endorsement of products, services, etc. by depicted people or organizations. For example: do not use an image of NASA and place it adjacent to your own product in a way that suggests NASA would recommend the product - quoting Pixabay.com (click to discover the entire set of rules)
Gratisography
In this case what you get is a "small" website. That means the catalogue is not that big, but the quality is astonishing.
Thus, they have more rules to follow. To discover them all, please follow this link to their website.
The images are professionally developed and you will find great value here :)
LifeOfPix
Not so different from Gratisography.
Great images, professional development and a free license you can discover following this link.
The site is easy to scroll down and finding a good image should not be hard at all!
UnSplash
At the header of the website you can see: "Free (do whatever you want) high-resolution photos" (click here for the full set of rules). Interesting. Am I right?
The site is professionally developed and it's easy to use and scroll. You can find images from a big range of topics and I'm sure you'll find value in it!
