Heya Paul

That's quite a list! Thanks very much for sharing.

I'd just like to add something:

Be careful with the Microsoft images, folks. Make sure you read their TOS very carefully!

I can't remember all the details off the top of my head, but I know one is that you have to own a copy of Microsoft Word that is licensed to you or your company, presumably--if you're running a commercial enterprise.

Now, for most people that's not going to be a problem (although the license to the company might be... dunno), but for some (like me) who don't see the need to pay an extra couple of hundred on a new PC for a word processor when I can just use open office, that is a problem.

They also have other weird rules about commercial use, from memory.

Worth checking out carefully.

Also, with public domain stuff, again, be very careful if you live outside the USA and/or you host your sites outside the USA. Copyright law is not standardised internationally.

Contact your local copyright council if unsure.

Don't want no one gettin' in hot water, eh?

Best,
TheNightOwl

That is a great point NightOwl. Always double check the copyright. If you're outside of the United States here's a wikipedia page that has a great chart for most of the worlds countries for you "International Warriors".

"In the U.S., any work published before January 1, 1923 anywhere in the world[1] is in the public domain."
Wikipedia:Public domain - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

However it can be a little more complicated than this and this only applies to "Public Domain" material. SO NightOwl is correct and one needs to check the status of any material you are intending to use commercially.


Speaking of Public Domain I forgot to list a huge Public Domain clipart library. The clip art on this website and part of this project are released into the public domain.
Open Clip Art Library About

and this site for Public Domain Images.

All The Best
