How to get copyright-free images

Hello steemians of this lovely community,

As steemians, including pictures in our posts is very important because it makes our posts interesting.
Most Newbies really do include pictures in their posts but it's rather unfortunate they don't even realize those pictures are copyrighted.
Copyright-abuse is a very huge misconduct in writing of which our community frowns upon alongside plagiarism which is enshrined in achievement 3

As a good writer,it is important to avoid using copyrighted images.
You could end up being penalized or worse of it all getting banned from a community.
From my observation,the reason why people use copyrighted images are:

• Most people don't even check if the image they are using is copyrighted.
• Others also do not know how and where to get copyright-free images.

Below are a number of websites where copyright-free images can be found.

• pixabay

• unsplash

• pexels

• life of pix

Also,after getting these copyright-free images,it is important to cite their source.
Most people just put the link there without getting it organized which is not pleasing to readers.
Example

This is how to properly cite your image source:

Thank you for attention.
