stock photos , or photos i can use for a non profit org

[twelvejewelz]

Im trying to put something together for a non profit organization in our aquarium hobby that requires me to get lots of pictures of different species of fish. Im wondering if there is a place with stock photos or something like this with pictures with no watermarks or anything that i can use? Its really a good thing we are putting together for our hobby and im wondering if there is some place like this available? Im not about to go and steal peoples pictures like i see some other sites do as this is very wrong. It basically requires 1 picture male and female of all the reef species i can find. Please let me know or help me by pointing me in the right direction.I promised that i would help with this but now it seems its going to be harder than i though to find this lol . Thanks in advance everyone!

If you haven't already - contact Bob Fenner over at www.wetwebmedia.com. Make sure you provide the name of the not-for-profit institution and a little more detail about what exactly this project entails and why it's being done.

Do the photographers on this site agree that their photos can be used without copyright?

There are many reef fish that aren't sexually dimorphic, so you'll need to consider that.

Renee (seahorsedreams) has tons of excellent photos, many of uncommon fishes. You should drop her a PM and tell her a bit about your project. If it tickles her fancy, she might help you out as long as you give her photo credit.

Take a look HERE...all pix are "clickable" and open up more pix of the same species.

Enjoy...

Exactly snorvich ,getting the photos on photobucket would be stealing and thats what im going to avoid but thanks for the info anyway. And i do appreciate the help monkey and namxas i will be sure to contact them both and see what i can work out. Im not sure what i can say yet but i do appreciate the help and i will be sure to contact both Bob and Renee. There will definitely be credit to the photographers its just that the watermarks are no good. Ill fill you all in once its all in action . Thanks for all of the help as its for a good cause!
