withnail Posted August 29, 2005 Share Posted August 29, 2005 I'm currently making a website (thanks for the help Udon) for my Fathers new business and have designed a logo for him which is essentially a montage of photographs I have found on the net. My question is this how do I know if the pictures I have used are copyrighted or not and what is safe to use. Or is there a place where I can find a large collection of photographs which definitely are ok to use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nickerelastic Posted August 30, 2005 Share Posted August 30, 2005 (edited) I just ask the owner / website admin if I can use the pics. is there a place where I can find a large collection of photographs which definitely are ok to use. I can't answer that. What kind of photographic subjects do you want? Edited August 30, 2005 by Nickerelastic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want to use photgraphs, I am sure you can google for 'royalty-free photographs' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
