i use wikimedia commons a lot for the pictures on my blog. I have noticed though that i am crediting wikimedia a lot against common wisdom. can anyone suggest a site where i can obtain copyright free images for use on my blog apart from wikimedia commons?

I have to admit that looking for photos with a creative commons licensing agreement is time consuming. Even if I find usable photos, I often entertain doubt as to ownership of the photo and find the attribution process a bit problematic because I usually download the image for later use. My preferred solution now is to look for photos at www.flickr.com (Yahoo's web albums) and simply embed a chosen photo rather than downloading it and uploading it back to my blog.

Oops. I messed up the link. It's www.flickr.com.

Flickr is good too. Specially since we need to download nothing. Just embed the link and we're done. That minimizes risk as well as task. Good day!

There are several. The best ones that I can think of now are: 1. http://www.copyrightfreephotos.com/ 2. http://www.freedigitalphotos.net/ 3. http://www.copyright-free-images.com/ There are still several sites, even better than these. Just do a little research. Anyhow I think the 3 mentioned will be enough and sufficient. Good day!

For some reason, some of the websites offering free photos only have a small selection of photos. So, I usually skip them altogether and move on to the next site on the search engine results page. Anyway, it's a time-consuming process--looking for sites that satisfy our needs.

thanks mimo and happy weekend, bloggeroo. i think i will have a choice of images to select from. it's not too creative having to credit only wikimedia commons for all your images all the time. i was getting bored.

There is no such sites and there is no such copyright free images, you can use all images from all sites. I think there is no restriction for using images from other sites.

You can't use someone else's picture without permission. It's illegal.

thanks frugalmommy and catgods. using copyright protected images without permission makes your work seem plagiarizing; why not go for the creative commons images instead.
