Blogging Challenge Week 3: Images, music and videos

We can’t just use any image we like just because it is on the Internet. We have to use images with the right licence. If it is a Creative Commons then we have to say who originally created it. There are also places to find free photos for my projects

 Open Clip Art https://openclipart.org/
 Pics4learning http://www.pics4learning.com/
 Compfight website http://compfight.com/
 The Commons on flickr https://www.flickr.com/commons
 Wikimedia Commons https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Main_Page
 Getty Search gateway https://goo.gl/j6BCC8
 Use Explore in Google Docs

Here is an example image: (from the bottom)
