I don't think you understand that any image you upload has to be free of copyrights. It is in bold on the upload screen. Just because you found it on google images, or someone else's site, it does that mean it is free of copyrights or can be used any way you want.
The reason for this website is for users to use the images how they want to and if it is copyrighted, they can't do that. You also cannot just modify someone else's artwork and claim it as copyright free or public domain.
Please be responsible for you uploads and make sure you don't upload copyrighted works. |
I agree completely with Liz. I came to this site because I intend to use some of these images for commercial purposes and all uploaded images are supposed to public domain, and free from copyrights. There's one particular user chifwui, who has downloaded several copyrighted images. I checked just a few of his downloads and found they were all copyrighted and not public domain. I know the terms of use voids your site of any responsibility if a user gets in trouble for using a copyrighted image, but I believe it would be a disservice to continue to host the images that he is uploading. I don't think chifwui understands what copyright means. I believe he is just downloading images of google searches and uploading them here. Also, editing someone else's image does not make it royalty free either. He has uploaded multiple derived works.
Here is proof of misuse:

I could go on, but I think you get the point that many of the images are NOT copyright free and could get users in trouble for using them. By the way I used tineye.com to find out if the image was posted elsewhere. I will be doing that with each image I use to make sure it is not copyrighted, but I feel I shouldn't have on site that is supposed to host public domain, non-copyrighted images. |
| Editng a copywright work does not make the derived work royalty free.

I am mentioning this because I use this site with the intention of using the contained images without having to pay royalties or infringing copyrights and I don't want anyone to get in trouble (possibly sued or sent a C&D) for using what should be royalty free.
Chifwui please stop uploading copyrighted images. |
| You need to stop posting clips that are copywrighted:

The intention of this website is for completely royalty free images. You're going to get users of this site in trouble for stealing and misusing someone else's work. |
