TechTip 8/29 - Finding Photos without Breaking Copyright Laws
So, you want to use great photos in your presentations, powerpoints, movies, whatever. You could also crawl through flickr - but the quality there isn't always the best. Sure, you could just steal stuff off of google images, but you don't want to break copyright laws. Plus you would like to teach your students how to be responsible when you have them do similar projects.
Where can you find this stuff?
Well, you want to look for sites that offer royalty free stock photos. Stock photos tend to be of a better quality and resolution. There are a bunch sites out there that sell stock photos and carry free ones like:
But you don't want to spend all day bouncing between sites looking for good free stuff. So where do you go?
Yotophoto is now indexing well over a quarter million Creative Commons, Public Domain, GNU FDL, and various other 'copyleft' images.
