Curious more about the story behind artforweb.co.uk? My name is Helmuts, I am a web enteuprener living in the UK and photography is a hobby of mine. Several years ago I was running a successful local news website and it was then when I realised that you just can't use any photos taken from internet as they are all protected by copyright laws.
Then the next surprise came that most royalty free stock photos actually are not free and do cost money. Yes, it is ok to buy few photos a month, but it will get really pricey when you post up-to 10 posts a day and almost no small internet start-ups can afford that.
And the idea was born to create a website where users can download free photos and graphics for their projects without the need to pay for them nor demands to link back to the author pages.
www.ArtForWeb.co.uk is my humble investment into the Utopian idea of free internet. Helmuts
