TIPS

Why must I make sure that the image I choose falls into the public domain?

Privately owned images are often available for use only if you agree to pay a fee and/or get the owner’s permission to use the image. You can use a public domain image without paying a royalty and/or obtaining the owner’s permission to use the image.

How does Creative Commons work?

At creativecommons.org, you find links to license or search for images at several places, such as Flickr or Google Images. Search results do not guarantee an image is licensed by Creative Commons. You need to click an image to examine its licensing information.

Resize and Move Graphic Objects

If a picture or other type of image — which is also called a graphic object — is not positioned where you want it, you can move it. Similarly, if a graphic object or is too large or too small, you can resize it. When you select a graphic object, handles appear on each side of the graphic object; you can use these handles to resize it. Alignment guides — green lines — appear as you move a graphic object to help you determine where to place it. Once you have picked the spot for the graphic, the alignment guides disappear.
