I have been an Unsplash power users for years. Also love Pexels! Both amazing platforms.
When I was a multimedia designer for an advertising company we used unsplash and pexels all the time for stock photos. Always looked at the free sources before looking at paid stuff.
I use both daily in my job. I normally go to pexels as it seems to give me better search results. Both are definitely good though!
Pexels and PxHere look also nice, thank you for sharing :)
Love the site. I got many pics from it to suebin my personal projects so I could later show them off in my portfolio, some parts of which used to be public, so this really helped me avoid any trouble with licensing or anything.
Sometimes I also get some pics there to turn into wallpapers for my phone or my 16:9 screens.
Absolutely recommended, especially if you need assets for your projects that won't get you in trouble.
So, I really like using Unsplash.
One thing I am always uneasy about is when I see just how many photos with people there are on the site. What model in their right mind would agree to give away their likeness for free and practically without being able to control the use of the resulting works at all?
Like, imagine a right-wing party uses you wearing a rainbow shirt as a motive in their campaign. And since the image is not individually licensed, there is pretty much nothing you can do.
Shameless plug: I love Unsplash and have been using it for many years both as a contributor and viewer, but their new Unsplash+ service sucks so I made an extension that removes it from the site :)
Great site
A place for your preferably unique useful or fun sites and kind of a bookmark manager for me :p
