What does Royalty Free mean?

Royalty Free Images are unlimited use licenses from our stock photography, illustration and flash collections and are covered by the "standard" pricing of the items. Our royalty-free collections cover a wide range of themes and include both professional and user generated content.

Royalty Free images are a great, inexpensive option as you have unlimited access to the image so long as you have the download, and are only limited by your own imagination.

FAQ - Images

What image size do i need?

That depends for what purpose you need the image. Are you printing it? Posting it on a web site? Here are some suggested sizes:

 

. Extra small/small images are good for articles, blog posts and mobile devices.

. Medium/large images are good for web sites, invitations and PowerPoint® presentations.

. Extra large/Extra extra large are good for printed brochures, publishing and billboards.

 

If you’re unsure, err on the large side. Nothing bad happens to a big image when shrunk, but small images blur and distort when they are blown up. To maximize your options stick to the suggested guidelines, but understand that they are just that: suggestions. Bear in mind that every project is unique.





What do "EPS" and "Vector" mean?

They mean the same thing. EPS (Encapsulated PostScript) or vector is an image file format that produces the best-quality lines, shapes, and colors possible. Because the file quality is of such high resolution, these images are manipulable and scalable to any size and detail – the only limit is the resolution of your display. EPS/vector files are most often used in Adobe® Illustrator®, usually for high-quality prints.

What’s a license and why do I need one?

 

A license allows you to use an image legally. If you have the right license for the image you buy, you are legally protected against intellectual property infringement claims by the copyright holder of the image, from models within an image and from real property owners. Creartist handles the paperwork, ensures a protection plan is in place, and offers you options to legally extend your usage rights if and when it becomes necessary.

What is model and/or property release?

 

Anytime an image contains a recognizable person and/or property, a properly uted release is needed from the person(s) and/or property owner.

Creartist has all the necessary releases from models and real property owners for all content offered on its site.

I bought an image, can I make an upgrade?

 

Okay, so you bought a Creartist image. Congratulations on your excellent purchase! But now you think that the image you bought is too small for your purposes.

That's okay! Just buy the one you want and contact Customer Support and ask for a refund for your original purchase. The credits will be back in your account within 3 business days.

You must decide to upgrade within 30 days of the original purchase to obtain a credit refund. After that, you must pay the full price for the upgrade.

Sorry, but you cannot downgrade an image.

What is the return policy?

If you purchase $30 worth of credits and do not use it, Creartist will refund your money as long as it is within 30 days of the original purchase. You must have a minimum of $30 in credits. Anything less than $30 is non-refundable.

 

If you have any questions regarding the return policy, please contact Customer Support with your questions.
