Whoa, that is not how this works. The big thing about Unsplash is the license guarantee. If this is just random images you found elsewhere, then this is just Google Images or imgur. This is not a site of vetted stock images.
- seanwilson 6y ago> The big thing about Unsplash is the license guarantee. How strong is the guarantee? What happens if someone uploads an infringing photo or one without model release to Unsplash then you use it and get sued?
- CharlesW 6y agoThis and most everything else you'd want to know is addressed in their official Unsplash License guide and FAQ: https://help.unsplash.com/en/articles/2612329-releases-and-trademarks https://help.unsplash.com/en/articles/2612329-releases-and-t...
- seanwilson 6y ago> While photographers agree that photos they upload on Unsplash have model releases, there is no reasonable way for us to monitor all photos that get uploaded to Unsplash. We cannot make any guarantees, therefore we recommend when using a photo containing a person, that you should not imply endorsement by the person in the photo. It's a great service but how careful do you need to be with caveats like this compared to other sources?
- jiofih 6y agoUnsplashed was initially a hand-picked collection, and as far as I know submission is now heavily curated (and probably checked with reverse image search).
