Getty Images Letter Forum / Where can we get safe images?

« on: April 09, 2009, 09:01:11 PM »

This question might not even be in the realm of reality, but here goes.

Does anyone have a source of 100% safe photos and images (clip art) to buy, rent, lease, subscribe to... etc?

A Guru on another forum said to go to PhotoSpin. I did, and they do have some nice photos. But then I read their End User's License Agreement (EULA)... and it said in part... You use their stuff and you are on your own. They do not warranty ANYTHING, including NONINFRINGEMENT.

I went to other sites that offer photos and some of their EULAs are even worse. BoxedArt has a 9 pager that says... they warrant NOTHING including NONINFRINGEMENT and you should get legal advice BEFORE you click "I Accept".

So, my question remains -- besides taking the photos ourselves or drawing our own clip art -- where can we get 100% safe images?

I do own a camera but my pics are poor and I can't even draw a straight line.

Oh by the way - who reads the EULAs anyway? I will from now on!

Thanks,

Oscar,

Please explain to us the term "Strict Law". It is often used when talking about copyright laws.

Thanks,
