What are royalty free images?

Many people out there think royalty free (RF) images are free to use. In reality it means you pay a one-time fee to use this image. Once you pay this one-time fee, you can use this image however many times, and wherever you would like, without future payments required. There are many different sites where you can find royalty images, i will list some below.

This is just a short list of websites that offer RF photo's, and also these websites do not require attribution (meaning you do not need to say where you got them)
