If you are an aspiring blogger or website designer, this is extremely important news that can help you in the near future. Normally, in order to legally use an image found online, you have to pay the photography company that owns said photograph. However, most recent start ups don’t have the budget necessary to properly go through this precaution. Today marks a new beginning and a change to this system, as Getty photography has announced that they have made a significant portion of their collection available for free online. This is major and can’t be understated, we are talking about millions of photos now open to the public.
From FDR to your favorite celebrities you can now access everything from their Gettyimages website. All one needs to do is use their open ended embedded program and let the company places a footer at the bottom of the page, which will include the photo credit and link back to the website. This is perfect for those who are beginning to explore WordPress and other website companies.
A quick embed code is your ticket to hundred of thousands of unique photos, from one of the greatest resources on earth. Check it out and let us know how it goes for you.
