Question
I was wondering if it is ok to use google images in a students portfolio. Nothing that is copyrighted.
Legally possibly as copyright always remains with the artist/author. But ethically for certain - I would not want anyone using my images without compensation or permission.
We, being an agency can't do it. Me personally being a photographer wouldn't do it and recommend to everyone to refrain from same.
Thanks for your question it is a good one.
Pete
