Blog Questions: Should I BUY Images I Use?

image

As a blogger we have certain responsibilities. This means we abide by an invisible oath, we vow to never do certain things. It more common sense than anything. So should you be responsible for purchasing images you use?

 
The answer is yes! We don’t take content that is not ours why would you take images? Every image you see here has been purchased by iStock Photo. I pay for the service that I cannot provide myself. Which is images. Del bought the entire Adobe Suite so we buy all the images and Del edits them. This is something we both feel strongly about. And sense we did purchase the images we have every right to edit the images. Buy paying for the images you use you own them, so please give the designers credit.
 
Remember you may not resale or give the images to anyone. Please see the designers and sites Terms of Service.

    Are you serious? I love that this post is flied under “blogging basics”

    “And *sense* we did purchase the images we have every right to edit the images. *Buy* paying for the images you use you own them, so please give the designers credit.”

    I think you mean “since”, and “By”.

    You also may want to sharpen up on the “owning images” aspect of istockphoto. You never “own” the image- you are licensing it for specific usage terms.

    BTW- I landed here from one of your spam emails you sent out. If you are going to take the time to spam people, at least make sure your content is dialed.
