IMAGE BANK |
Online resource of digital photos, illustrations and videos organized under the form of a website that allows users to browse, upload, and download files by respecting rules defined by the administrator of the website. Each of these websites offers a search engine that allows you to search for images by key words, types of files, orientation, image size, etc. Some websites provide free images, others charge for their images with different prices according to the size, quality and type of image. To purchase images, users need either to buy credits or make a subscription for their account. For free images, the website generally specifies the condition of use, such as attributing the work in the manner specified by the author or licensor. [1] |
