asked on

making images from scratch

Hi,

A client of mine wants me to make 20 images from scratch around a specific topic using Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop. These images will be for free download on his website. Is there any royalty free drawings or illustrations that I can use on the web?

He doesn't want me to post his link.

Thanks!

Check htp://sxc.hu for photos. Royalty free stock photography. They may have some illustrations as well.
Sorry. Missed a T!

Are the images at sxc.hu such that I can post them on my publication website for free download?
Yes, they are royalty free stock photography. You may use them so long as you follow their basic stipulations. (This is from their site)

You may use the Image

    In digital format on websites, multimedia presentations, broadcast film and video, cell phones.
    In printed promotional materials, magazines, newspapers, books, brochures, flyers, CD/DVD covers, etc.
    Along with your corporate identity on business cards, letterhead, etc.
    To decorate your home, your office or any public place.

You may not use the Image

    For pornographic, unlawful or other immoral purposes, for spreading hate or discrimination, or to defame or victimise other people, sociteties, cultures.
    To endorse products and services if it depicts a person.
    In a way that can give a bad name to SXC or the person(s) depicted on the Image.
    As part of a trademark, service mark or logo.
    SELLING AND REDISTRIBUTION OF THE IMAGE (INDIVIDUALLY OR ALONG WITH OTHER IMAGES) IS STRICTLY FORBIDDEN! DO NOT SHARE THE IMAGE WITH OTHERS!
Just making sure, I'm placing them for download on my publication website. Are the images from sxc.hu OK to do that with. Just making sure.

Also, is there any other big sites like that other than sxc.hu?
Not that I am aware of. That has always been my go to site for free stock stuff.
You could also try http://vecteezy.com 

I have used that before, though I am not sure of their terms.

stu215,

That's what I was wondering
@Stu

I didn't even see that.

GOOD POINT. Sounds like you need to go make your own images, bro!
I guess after all of the annoying emails I have trained my eyes to avoid sentences written in all caps..............
Hehe, sorry i dont have any sites to offer that jus caught my eye :-P
Although you may try the content CD's that came with your copy of ( Adobe Photoshop / Illustrator  ) as those clip art images are ones you paid for with your software and I should imagine you can do what you want with them...

You may have to give them credit for the images if redistributing them and read their disclaimer too to be sure.
Try checking out this site too:
http://www.thoughts.com/emmsanuel98rhode/best-sites-as-well-as-sites-to-find-totally-free-images-for-promotional-use

I'd copy and paste but they list about 15 sites and the restrictions needed to use the graphics on them.
( I would still check individual disclaimers to see what they say about redistribution )

nice link
