Go to Google search Engine type in "google free images" and search. It will take you to where the images are. Google now warns you " not all the free images are free after all" And then says" make sure the images you are using have no restriction or have license agreement that allows you to them in the way you want to"

when you have found the image you want to use do this;

When you have searched and found the image you want to use what you should do is click on the image then go to tool bar and click on the Tool, there will be pop-up that displays right to use, "The right to use gives you the option to filter the usage option" click on it, there will be a drop down which will display options as follows:

  • not filtered by license which means that you have not selected a filter to organize your work.
  • Pictures labelled for reuse; it means you can use the image without any poblem
  • Labelled for commercial reuse
  • Labelled for reuse with notification
  • and labelled for commercial modification

When you have checked and filtered your search it will give you free mind to use your image as you want it or it will tell you not to use it that it not safe to use.

Hey there, I probably need to go back and check some of my old images from when I was first starting out so thanks for he advice.

Did you know there is an easier way to do this. Once you are on the images page, along the top menu you can then go to tools, then click on 'usage rights', then 'labelled for reuse', then it will filter ALL of the images before you have wasted time going through them all.

I'm not sure if that's the way you are already doing it, but it's a lot easier :-)
