Just trying it out........

@george That´s great, as it will inform many who not been using Pixabay about the free images they provide. However, as they have free images normally, that I have been using on many other websites already that does not partner with them. Is it any special extras? Like more free images just for Asean Now members included because of the "partnership" you announce? Or is it only a way to spread the information of already existing free images to a broader audience?

We have a special deal with them, about 4 million free pics. I can’t go into details here.

Is it just my PC or are others having a hard time seeing the stock photos due to pop-up ads?

See attached screenshot. Using Windows 10.

Ok, awesome!

So now we do not need to compose a subject or answer by using Chat GPT, or take a photo to illustrate it now. 

Could be coming towards the end of my membership. Don't all clap at once! 555

How long before we get posts saying 'Ooh this is my favourite of the 4 million photos'. 

Stop it now and only allow photos taken personally by the poster. Please!

I admit that I have posted You Tube videos in answer to posts, but only where appropriate.

Soon the forum will be full of photos, just like this one.

Agreed.

I can peruse 9GAG for photos with "clever" captions.

Interestingly I gave up on 9GAG maybe 2+ years ago.🙃🙃

I've been here since 2004. I'm not the least bit interested in my so-called reputation.

That's a pretty cool photo, though that could have been taken in a pet shop.

 

Don't know why anyone would want to use someone else's photo, unless absolutely necessary.  And really should credit (as I have) the photographer if & when posting.  

 

I'd hate to see the forum full of stock photos, as if wanting to see, I'll just search myself.  With 10s of 1000s of my own photos, that's highly unlikely.

Probably the one thing that there will never be a shortage of on the internet!

 

Personally, I have been struck by the many videos of the young ladies of the IDF who keep popping up on my Facebook feed. It must take a great deal of effort to look so casually gorgeous in combat kit!
