That would most likely violate someone's copyright and get you into a heap of legal trouble. <br /> <br />So what are you supposed to do if you don't have a camera or any photography talent? <br /> <br />Stock photos? Sounds good, but most stock photos cost money. <br /> <br />Creative Commons licensed photos from Flickr? That could be good too, but that requires a link back and there may be restrictions against commercial use. Can you imagine having to put a long Flickr URL on every t-shirt and mousepad you make? How would you go about giving proper credit on a small 125x125 ad? And if you are making web templates it might not be the best idea to trust people that use your templates to keep the attribution links intact. <br /> <br />So where can you get a whole bunch of great photos to use, that don't require an attribution link, won't cost you a dime, and allow for commercial use, too? <br /> <br />Fortunately for you, I have done some research into this and found quite a few sources. <br />
