I was searching and searching for money all about how to earn money online. Researching, messing up, stupidly landing myself on way to many spam lists. However I noticed

Awesome advise guys. I'm glad there arr people I can learn so much from.

If you can design your own graphics, that would be better than using pictures that are already on the internet. Question is, would that creating your own images distracts you from your focus building your site?

With today's technology you can re-use existing images and modify them to your own design (I am talking about free images that allow that) instead of creating your own.

To prevent people to use your picture, one way is to have watermark on it. This method is not 100% effective but to certain degree people tends to avoid re-use images with watermark on it.

Hope that helps.

That's a good point I know what watermarking is I'm just not sure how to do it. Lol I can actually make simple graphics rather fast and I have done a lot with photography do thsys really fun to play with. I have been mesdimg with art on the computer ever since the first paint program came out. I would make 3d images pixel by pixel using the the thumbprint blow up bow (anybody remember those days lol) I have even gotten pretty good with free phone programs. So while it may take a little time away grome working on my site. It wouldn't be too much time. I might even have images I've already created before hand. I thought the benefits msy be worth it. Honestly, my biggest set back is I can only work on it when I'm home alone, or the only one awakes . Not in the best living situation, and it's very frustrating so those side projects to help aid my site I am able to getting some work on when I cant work on the web page. But that's for your imput.

Hi Tracy, you have raised a really interesting point. the top of the range is to produce our own images, graphics, and vectors. the trouble is that it is not always possible, the second thing is that we think that the internet is massive, in reality, it is not that big, you have already noticed images reoccurring across multiple websites, some images are overused which kind of devalues their presence. I guess we have to be selective when it comes to using visual content as to preserve the uniqueness that we are striving to create, we all travel online to some degree and it is amazing how many times we see the same stuff. the first thing that pops to mind is that they are just copying, which then cheapens the viewer's experience. Just my take on things.

I have been using an app called TinEye, it does a reverse image search, it can sit in your browser and when you mouse over an image it will give you a list of instances of that image that occur online.With original works, it is zero with some images the numbers are very high tend to avoid those ones.

That's sounds like a great app actually. Thank you! :) lol... Been feeling like the web is rather small actually for some time niw. I read way to much snd just have way to inquisitive of a mind. I mean I spend hours looking through the fast track to money stuff., and it's the same stuff iver and over. It's like that with most things I look for. If I'm curious about something I'll turn through as many search pages as Bing or Google will offer. Then even try to rephrase my question a few ways and maybe I'll only come up with a few new links that haven't been clicked on. Makes you realize. Yes the internet is vast, and has unseen potential. Limitless information even, but what's actually open to the public eye is rather tiny. :) that app would have saved me time, but I admit I had fun and learn a lot in other ways. For instance, I learn a lot of what not to dos... I do think I'll be uding thst app moving forward though. I plan to try to get most of my site put together tomorrow if my day doesn't throw me any curveballs. Thanks again
