Where I can get photos for my hubs?
The whole thing have confused me a lot.Please help!!!!
Aside from using your own photos, you can also use photos that you can find on the Internet. However, you have to make sure that you are legally allowed to use the photos that you are using. You can legally use photos that are in the public domain or that have a Creative Commons license. For Creative Commons licenses, you should use ones that are attribution (CC:BY), share-alike (CC:BY-SA), or no-derivs (CC:BY-ND). You can also use the ones that say non-commercial but only if your hubs aren't commercial.
If the pictures are in the public domain or have the creative commons license, you'll usually see this indicated in the photo or by going to the photo details. But photos which don't state that they are public domain or have the creative commons license means they are copyrighted and you shouldn't use those photos.
You can find photos that you can legally use on many sites such as flickr, Wikimedia Commons and pixabay.

Where do you get free photos for your hubs?Is it true that you need a model release if someone's face is in the picture. How about posting a pic of a celebrity? If I'm doing a product review can I post a picture of the product? What about logos in your pictures?
