You worked hard on your post, and now you need an eye catching image to make sure readers see it! The best content in the world can be overlooked if you do not add a good photo.

Plus, if you use images you just googled, you could get in trouble from Steemit and the law for copyright infringement.

Don't use images you don't have permission to use!

And of course use your own photos when you can! We love to see them :)

Sometimes you come across a picture you absolutely must use as it's perfect for your article! Contact and ask for permission first. People will usually love the fact you want to use their photo! But be sure to cite the source with either a link to their website or by simply using the photographers name- whichever they prefer.
