Open License Art
About this site
All images are original and created by Christian Delacourt with the aid of AI and graphic design programs, the aim is provide a source of images with licenses via Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International. This is the latest and most accepted version for worldwide use, and I use the most permissive version short of placing images in the public domain.
I believe the majority of licensed images to be expensive and with quite restrictive copyright terms, I aim to provide a good very flexible copyright with proven original source to prevent copyright issues for both the user and the author. All images have embedded XML metadata and are also uploaded in jpeg form with Adobe Content Credentials showing the image creator details. This is the only copyright requirement I require for use, no need to display any other external copyright information with images as required information is contained in the image data itself and verifiable (any image can be checked with an image editor such as Photoshop, or simply uploaded to https://contentcredentials.org/verify to verify creator or check for possible matches if image altered.)
Images can also be provided with an optional separate PDF file attribution requirements waiver explicitly waiving any Creative Commons (CC) requirements for display of license details and link (ie. all attribution requirements), as per terms of CCPlus (CC+). Effectively this is dual licensing with optional additional license terms (the attribution requirements waiver) available alongside the Creative Commons license which is valid in all ways not explicity waived.
I sell access to high quality images on Etsy.com. There is no requirement to purchase solely from me, anyone who possesses any image can resell or give away that image, I merely charge a small fee for access to new high resolution images with extra optional signed PDF waiver. After download they become yours to use in any way as you wish indefinitely and irrevocably, including for any commercial purposes.
