Doing a Deal.Copyright, Royalty free images.
Hi there,
I want to share this blog post with all of the WA community. I don't know if this issue has been raised or covered here previously or not, however I am going to air this suggestion with all of you , if I may.
My proposal is as follows ........ What if, Kyle and Carson were to approach some or all of the Stock Image Companies with a view to doing a deal with one of them in the area of purchasing images, for us members here in WA.
They can easily go to any of these companies , armed with the fact that they have say approx...5, 10, or maybe 20,000 members here at Wealthy Affiliate, who would be very interested in purchasing images on a regular basis.
If Kyle and Carson could get a special reduction on the images, vectors, videos etc etc, for us members here, I'm sure we would all be very interested.
I have paid up to $20 for some images, which is rather expensive. ( I had no choice as I needed the image ).
I am pretty sure there is a company out there who would be interested and willing to do a deal with WA. If we were to get the images at say.... 1, 2 or $5 per image, I would be very happy with those prices. If that business deal could be arranged, it sure would eliminate a lot of worry and concerns about copyright and royalty fees etc. if this deal was to happen, it would be a win win situation, for everyone concerned.
It would be easy for WA to set us up with codes, usernames or passwords etc.. for that Stock Image Company, that would identify us as being fully paid-up members here at WA.
Your comments, feedback and or 'likes' would be greatly appreciated,
Thanking you all in anticipation.
Philip Browne.

Hi Phillip,
This sounds like a great initiative, we all need images, videos etc for our websites and this makes complete sense.
I will keep an eye on this post to see what happens, well done for bringing it up...
Cheers,

Hey Philip.
If you want, you can follow my ancient training here OK, this is. DISGUSTING ! Just. Ugh. which explains how you can grab 30 images for free from Bigstock.
Then when you cancel, you should be able to grab 150 for c. 30¢ each. OK, be a "sheeplewussy", but don't join the circus!! A lot of other stock libraries also offer free images for new customers, ie. Adobe are giving away 10 free images at http://www.stock.adobe.com if you join their free trial.
There's also currently unlimited downloads for a month at http://www.stockunlimited.com/ for $9 although their pictures and range aren't always of the greatest quality.
I avoid all "free" image sites, and even some of the paid ones like Graphic Stock, as they hide the fact in their T&Cs; that they don't guarantee that the images you get from them are copyright free, leaving you open to having DMCAs filed against your site, and even demands for substantial compensation from the rightful copyright holder.
