I always sort of struggle with this... Yes, I can browse CC images (Creative Commons) and imgur and all of those. But to be honest, the Stock Photo companies out there have some truly awesome stuff.
A lot of professional bloggers need a step up in quality and selection, rather than making due with what's out there. I ran into a person early on with Steemit who had a stock Photo account and used those images...
They were great. I figure that some people will need stock photography... I know I want to get my posts noticed. I also want to involve other Steemians.
Thanks for posting. I know I sort of did the guerilla marketing trick there to you on your non-payout, but you are somewhat a public figure here. I appreciate your comments.
But tell me once more ... why this kiwi? And would you pay back the guy who shot it if given the chance??

(Is this enough? Need some advice on what's fair and what's not?)
(Can we stop with the image bylines, yet?)

(put a fork in the bylines, it's done.)

Oh, my, I was really that dense. I didn't get it, seriously. I was half-dumb, half making my point... and missed the point of the photo. I hadn't thought of the literal fork/hard fork. OIC LOL

Well the reason I chose the picture is because my post was about the hardfork, so I looked for pictures with a fork. I liked the one with a kiwi :)
I'd support some type of Steemit image stock program. I think it is a cool idea.
