How Do Copyright Free Images Work?
Some websites allow you to download pictures for private use (e.g., background wallpapers) yet disallow images to be used commercially. This includes instances such as business cards, websites, or posters.
The following websites either support or are fully composed of CC0 images available in the public domain. The owners of these images have allowed users to modify, edit, and use their images without copyright backlash.
