Legitimate image sources: take it or make it, stock photography sites (istockphoto, shutterstock) Royalty-free: pay a single up-front free for the image: rights-managed images (getty, corbis, jupiterimages) Pay a fee based on: size of the business, no. of people exposed to image, and amount of time image will be used, free images and creative commons. Understand the limitations of free and fair use . Use appropriate citations when using cc images. How not to impress: google ganking: Gabbing images from google without proper attribution or licensing permission: misuse of cc images: Services like flickr allow users to share their images but also retain copyright to their respective owners. Images often licensed with creative commons licenses: hotlinking: Using an image from another site and linking directly to the url path on the source image"s own servers. Not only steals the image from the original creator, it costs that user bandwidth and is easily traceable.
