Can I post photos that I have submitted to sites like Shutterstock in my Hubpages' articles?
I am thinking of submitting my photos to sites like Shutterstock. Can I post these photos on my Hubs also? Or is there a restriction banning photos submitted to Shutterstock from appearing on Hubs? Thanks in advance for your replies!

Thank you Tim! I couldn't really find the answer there. So you can use images with Attribution Only, Attribution, No Deriv, or Attribution, Share-Alike licenses. And that you can't use "non-commercial." Shutterstock has what sort of license?
I have never explored or used Shutterstock. I use Pixabay, Flickr, Wikimedia, and others. They all show you the Creative Commons attribution for the image. Their images are free to use.
Hubpages wants you to use photos that you own the rights to (or have permission to use). So as long as you retain the rights to them after submitting them to shutterstock then you're totally fine. Just make sure you read the fine print regarding who owns the rights when you submit to shutterstock.
Thanks so much nochance! Your reply makes complete sense. I was reading that contributors retain the copyright of their images on Shutterstock. There's also no exclusive deal. So that means it's ok to use photos that have been submitted to Shutterstock on my hubs. Thanks for your reply!

If I have an article on HubPages.com is there a way to submit it to the HubPages editors, so they can determine if it qualifies for Discover.Hubpage.com?

I see Hubs where beautiful photos are used and are from Pinterest. The photos are usually credited as being from Pins. Are we allowed to use those photos??

HubPages is very firm in their rule to only use photos for which you have permission to use. Hypothetically, what happens if you break this rule? I've seen many people using images that are clearly not theirs to use and I was just wondering if this affects them in any way...

I have an account at Shutterstock, where I submit photos for use, and which pays (will pay, once I'm established) when someone wants to use my images. They are as strict as HP when it comes to copyright, and also posting personal information.I am having a bit of a battle with them on two...

I am reading more and more Hubs where there are beautiful photos, but NO attribution to them. I just read one that clearly has a watermark of the person holding the copyright. When you look at the photos, it is clear they were taken by a professional photographer.What are your thoughts...
