5 Free Image Sites To Keep Your Site Legal !


It’s all too easy to head on over to Google Images and search for your target key phase, then poof! There we go, a brand new image for your site or latest blog post. Unfortunately, using these images will more than likely result in infringing upon someone else’s copyright. Not only that, but the artist or photographer will have worked hard to create that image and deserves attribution for their creation.

We’ve all been there; someone decides to copy your blog layout or latest post, removes your attribution and claims it for their own. So why is copying someone else’s image any different?

Fear not though friends, there are ways to get your hands on high quality images which are fit for most purposes without having to spend a penny!

Be aware, some authors still require attribution but a simple e-mail is usually all it takes to legally use an image.

Kozzi.com

Kozzi is a relatively small, unknown but high quality stock image site. They have a decent selection of free to use stock images some of which require attribution.

Users that sign-up via referral can take advantage of the 10 premium credits that they provide. It may not sound like much, but it’s the equivalent of $10 in free credits and it means you’ll be able to use legal images on your website.

In an economy where the purse strings are being pulled tight Kozzi offer a good balance of affordability and legality!

Cost Per Credit: $0.80-$1.00
Stock.Xchng
Sxc.hu is the self-proclaimed largest leading free stock photo site. Owned by Getty Images they offer users the opportunity to download a variety of free and attribution required images.

Unfortunately it doesn’t seem to be an overly active community anymore, but the quality of images available more than makes up for it. The only down-side seems to be the relatively heavy push of their more popular platform iStockPhoto.

OpenPhoto.net

OpenPhoto is a slightly dated (1998) and more rustic platform than any of the other one’s I’m analysing today, but the volume of content available is superior to similar projects. With over 14k images available you should be able to find something usable for your task.

Thanks to the large user base OpenPhoto has grown year on year. This is in part due sheer number of images that are available without attribution. This means you can use these works commercially without fear of legal action.

FreeRangeStock

http://freerangestock.com/ - A popular image sharing platform that offers contributors a revenue sharing platform for any images they contribute. They actively encourage contributors be incentivisng them and users that wish to download attribution free images can do so simply by posting a comment.

Alright so it’s not 100% free, but follows the same principles as paywithatweet and other social incentives. Highly recommended due to the sheer volume of images available!

Flickr – Creative Commons Attribution

http://www.flickr.com/ - If you haven’t heard of Flickr then odds are you’ve been living under a rock. One of the largest free photo sharing sites on the net! Sure not all the images are available for use, but there are separate sections within the site that allow you to filter by attribution and Creative Commons license.

There’s also a fantastic free for use section that is frequently updated with fresh content. If you’re desperate to use an image, then get in touch with the author! Most authors will quite happily allow publication of their image after being contacted.

That’s All Folks!

So there we have it, with these free resources you’ll no longer have to feel guilty for stealing an image and fear any legal repercussions for using copyrighted images!

Creating a collage of your favorite photos


Creating a collage of your favorite photos is an excellent way to kill your free time. Not just to kill the time it has other usage as well. Whenever you prepare a photo collage you can compile all the memorable photos at a place, which is really cool. Also, you can upload them in Facebook and tag all those people whoever are there.
With the help of internet we can get tons of photo collage making tools, which are quite impossible to be defined one by one. However, we will be talking about some  tools, which will help us create photo collage at no time and for free.

1. Shape collage

This is one of the widely used online photo collage making tool, which is free, also it has desktop version, which is downloadable here. With the help of Shape Collage you can create varieties of photo collages. While making a photo collage from Shape Collage you get two option for you either you go for default collages or try your own, making your own collage is quite hard and consumes time, so better get going with the default themes. Another fascinating thing about the shape collage is it has also its own Facebook application, which is simply awesome.

2.  Loupe

This is another free online tool that let you generate super collages within few seconds. As Loupeallows you to import images from your Facebook photo album. While you can also import the pictures of your friends album to create a joint collage (Your friend album should be visible to you to do this). As another additional feature of this tool you can also later on delete photo from the pile of your collage.

Remember: Photos  that are created with Loup are public yet there is no any way how you can change the privacy to private, thus it might not be the good idea to keep your private photos in your collage. As another drawback of the tool it generates relatively smaller images which lower resolution that might look good in mobile only.
Just for the exampl

3. Pic Scatter

Pic scatter is another awesome tool that helps us prepare photo collage by using Facebook photos. With the help of Pic Scatter we can obtain a new cover picture with the photos of all our friends and even of our favorite pages. However we will get the water mark of the tool in our new photo college. In order to remove the water mark we need to sign for premium service, which costs 1.5$. One of the most awesome side about the Pic Scatter is we can change the photo by simply cliking over the box before making the final collage.

Going through the drawback of the tool users are allowed to choose photo from only one album, which is quite creepy.

4. Picture2Life

This is another awesome free online photo collage tool that let create 300 plus artistic photo collage. To create the collage simply go to picture2life, then upload the images. It might take some time depending on the internet speed. Also, if you are Firefox user you can get the free add-on of Picture2life, which is really cool. This add-on is downloadable here. Most importantly, do remember that you must have an account of your own in picture2life to create the photo collage. It is completely free to registerin it.
Create Photo Collage
While you go through the collage creting with picture2life you can’t usage your Facebook photo album unless you save them in your hard drive.

5. Picasa

As we all know that Picasa is one of the most popular product of Google, through which we can organize our pictures. Apart from this Picasa can be also used for photo collage making. Picasa gives a free desktop photo collage making tool through, which we can make photo collages in a second. Unlike Picture2life we can’t make photo collage from Facebook album unless we have them saved in our hard drive. Once when we download the tool we can work with photo collage making even if we are not connected with the internet, which is quite awesome. Picasa desktop tool is downloadable here. If you have downloaded the tool and you find it complex, then don’t panic and uninstall it because you can also get the free written photo collage making tutorial, which is here.

6. Fotonea

Fotonea is also one of the popular photo collage making tool. With the help of Fotonea you can customize the original image and make new photo collage. Unlike other tools it is not that easy to create photo collage, so for those whoever don’t want to work some time with photo collage making are not encouraged for using Fotonea. Also, while using Fotonea you must remember that you can only upload six image at time (while you are using the service for free), however if you would pay just 1$, then you can upload up to 20 pictures at a time, which might be a little weird, but it’s the developers rule, so helpless. Just to get started with Fotonea select the images to upload, define the size and select the background. You get number of options like resizing, rotating the image, add texts, add frame and many more.

Photovisi is online tool that generates 18 different photo collage for the users.  Unlike fotonea you can cutomize background, rotate image and also rearrange the images in your photo collage. You can also get this application in Facebook, to get the app simmply click here. Unlike other photo tool you not need to download the program nor you need to add some add-on in your browser you can have your collage prepared online just in no time. One thing that you must remember while making the collage is you can only upload the picture as per the template that you have selected.

5 GREAT SITES FOR BEGINNERS TO LEARN HTML/CSS

Recently, I’m on the verge of learning basic web designing. It all started with the idea of making a landing page for myself from scratch, without using sites like About.me. I ended up discovering sites which can be very handy for beginners who’re trying to code.



1. Codecademy

This is one of the best things I’ve stumbled upon this year. Codecademy is where you learn code by actually writing it, i.e. by completing exercises which are created by experts of those field. This year, they launched a free initiative named Code Year, calling everyone to learn the basics of coding.
The site lets you track progress, achieve badges and other cool stuff. If you’re stuck at some particular exercise, you can post your doubts in the forums, there are some helpful people out there! You can grab exercises related to Javascript, JQuery and of course CSS3. They also seem to add lessons related to Python, in future. The best thing? All this is free.
Link: Codecademy

2. Dochub

How about an instantly searchable documentation of all major programming languages? That’s Dochub. You can easily find documentation for various programming languages online, but it’s all scattered, and it’s not fast. Dochub solves this. Also, you can get the local version of the website from the Github page.
Link: Dochub

3. Mozilla Developer Network

Mozilla Developer Network(MDN) provides a great in-depth documentation for CSS and Javascript. It’s more like Wikipedia for web developers (you can even edit the wiki, and changes will be reviewed). Bonus is that, you can also learn about making Firefox addons and HTML5 apps, which are cross platform.

4. 30 days to learn HTML and CSS

If learning coding by reading documentation or books doesn’t work for you, then consider taking this free course. It’s a series of video tutorials by Jeffery Way, of TutsPlus. Of course, the tutorials are really basic, so if you want something more advanced, you should consider paying for Treehouse, a subscription based learning platform for web and and even iOS developers.
Link: Learn CSS

5. Read Blogs

Blogs related to web designing are in plenty. Starting with the TutsPlus network, till Smashing Magazine, there are so many blogs dedicated to this niche. Most of them will rank well on Google, if you search for anything related to web designing, that’s the best way to find good blogs.
I’m sure there are many more sites which fall under this category, and I’m no web designer. So, do you know any free resources for learning web designing? Write them in the comments.
