How can I get images for my hubs that I wish to publish, without copy right issues
Go to picasa free download. I acknowledge them when the pic is on my hub. Good luck
there is a very good hub explains this issue, you should take a better look at it. http://hubpages.com/hub/How-To-Legally- … -Your-Hubs
Use you own picture or use pictures with permission. There are plenty of sites that allow pictures to be used for free such as stock xchng
There are places like wiki commons that you can get images but I think you should try as much as possible to use your own images. I now always carry a camera around with me to take pictures that might be useful in future. Also take some general images like street signs etc that could also be useful or you could scan in objects on your computer.
I think that if you are writing about topics that you have a lot of knowledge or info on then you quite often should be able to come up with some kind of pic that would suit the subject.
You may use images from the web with the following caveats;
1. Does not have a copyright symbol or any such wording indicating copyright or negating free use.
2. The images are to be used in a comparison, for instruction,for personal use, to demonstrate a technical element, to showcase a point.
3. You may not claim them as yours
4. You may not alter/edit them in a public forum;example would be to use parts of the image in a logo, to edit the pixels, unnecessary or selective cropping, especially when dealing with body parts.
5. You may not be critical of the image,author,the image's intentions or purpose other than from a technical standpoint. Example; "the image is underexposed" is OK. "the photographer is a deviant" is not OK.
6. You may not directly profit from the image; example; if you made money when people clicked on the image. The ads on your hubs are not relevant.
7. The images may not be directly taken from the owner's web site. It's OK from Google Images but not from "John Doe's Photo Studio."

I enjoy the new feature that helps me as an author to know what hubs need to be upgraded but I have so many that need attention, I wish I could hit one button to un-publish the ones that are not featured. I know this sounds drastic but I only wish to show great content and now that I know for sure,...

I do not understand the method of sending hubs to a niche site. How does it work? I tried sending my 1st hub to Bellatory.com but they rejected it, saying I had to make changes. It was silly on my part though, I had no idea back then, I had newly joined and had simply submitted it, without...

I noticed a Hubpage which suggested ripping off original content and putting it on a blog with adsense to make money. It suggested that you could use the same method to make the content for a hubpage. I know that Google will ban adsense accounts for these copyright infringements. ...

Have you ever noticed that you spend more time allocating pictures and images for your hubs than you do actually writing it?

Is it against copyright laws to take a photo of the cover or pictures inside my books to use in my hubs? or photos of portraits/paintings from unknown artists I have on my wall?

I have not used hubpages for around a year and have recently started to get back into it, I must admit that in the beginning I was a little Naive and posted images into my hubs willy nilly without thought of where they came from. I have recently recieved an email from a photo place saying that I...
