Thanks for the heads up and keying everyone into the browser add-ons. I wouldn't mind if the hi-res copyright images lacked a view image button while the button remained on the royalty Free images. I am no programer though so I have no idea how difficult it would be to implement that type of feature. I was always leery of Google royalty Free images though which is why I typically stick to Unsplash, pixabay, or freeimages.com since these site offer a certain level of confidence to the user. -Aimee

Royalty Free is a type of paid licensing. Royalty Free images are not free. Professionals who use stock images know this, but it’s been a problem with Google searchers who see the word free and think it must mean the images are free! Free images are Copyright Free. That’s what you get on Pixabay. But you still need to double check those images with Tineye, as surprise, surprise, sometimes people steal images and upload them. But you are probably 99% safe with them though. But I would always double check because the end user is responsible for finding the original source - not Pixabay!
Thanks for the clarification! Great info and resource. I will definitely be checking out Tineye. -Aimee
