Pixabay - same as unsplash
Pexels - stock photos and videos
Stockvault.net - stock photos
freepngimg - icons, pictures and clipart
Veceezy - vectors and clipart
Kissclipart and kissPNG - more vectors and clipart (often transparent!)
Getdrawings - simplistic images and drawing tutorials
Gumroad - photoshop brushes (and more)
Canva - needs login but has lots of templates
Library of Congress - historical posters and photos
NASA - you guessed it
Creative Commons - all kinds of stuff, homie
Even Adobe has some free images
There are so many ways to make moodboards, bookcovers, and icons without infringing copyright! As artists, authors, and other creatives, we need to be especially careful not to use someone else’s work and pass it off as our own.
Please add on if you know any more sites for free images <3
Thanks for the information!!
I will reblog this everytime i see it
Ok so while we’re at this, I just checked out Unsplash, and it’s an AMAZING site for free images?
Made another edit post. @vereel

Wow, now there's a bot going around on Ao3 telling people that the "moderators" will delete works from "deprecated" fandoms and impose bans.
Fearmongering bullshit, but it's fearmongering bullshit that seems to be taking advantage of the recent spotlight series in order to trick authors into deleting their fics.
Just. Why.
What the hell does anyone get out of making these bots.
There's a theory already that this makes it easier for copyright infringers to steal fanfics because you can't prove the authorship of a deleted work.
This is pure evil
Spread the word
p.s. The comments look something like this:
p.p.s. There's no "new" policy that bans original works, either. Everything that was allowed, is still allowed. This is a "please read our TOS ffs" awareness campaign - not a surprise rugpull. Don't delete anything, please. It's an archive.
Reblogging again with @centrumlumina's tags because YEAH THIS. AO3 is not tiktok, it doesn't live and die by popularity or an algorithm. It's an archive. It's not gonna randomly delete old stuff to save space...that's literally the opposite of what an archive does!!
30+ year old women are the backbone of this website
reblog if you're literally 30+

SCAMMER ALERT
The user unlikelyprincebird tried to scam me today. They tried to use the really popular method as i learned later and i honestly had bad feeling about it since they first commented on my post and i was trying to be carefull the whole time writing with them but i think sharing this is importnant anyway because there might be some unaware people who could get scammed. Here i post the screenshots of our conversation so you can se the pattern of their actions (it all started with them commenting my post of which i dont have screenshots)
PLEASE REPOST SO MORE PEOPLE CAN SEE THIS (i will use some popular hashtags ao it gets more reach please dont get mad at this)
Also heres a list of some of their behaviours that maybe should alert you when someone asks you for a commision or may be mistaken for something proving they are not a scammer (just because someone does one of those things doesnt automatically mean that they are scammers but it should raise your awareness)
Asking for a commision someone that doesnt mention them in their bio/posts
Writing in comments instead of DMing, especially without liking the post
Having other people responding to their comments asking for commisions on their profile
Asking for a painting of their child's pet
Having preferences giving the illusion that they are actually interested in the artwork
Offering a bigger amount of money than you ask for
Asking for your name (they then use it in emails and claim that official mails always use your name and surname)
Sending false photos proving they sent the money
Offering to pay the additional money at first then making you pay it

Looking for Kingmen fic! Please help!!
I'm looking for a fic that Eggsy is assaulted as a kid and he wearing the kingsmen medallion. The predator moves on because harry at the time was looking for another taken child. The predator treated the kids as dogs saying they were bad dogs. That saying triggers Eggsy a bit when Merlin calls JB a bad dog for jumping on him. Eggsy is quick to sign the paperwork to get out of doing honeypot missions. I think Eggsy's mom and sister live in or are at the mansion a lot of the time. Eggsy is branded by the predator and later cuts it off and uses a egg membrane to seal the wound.
If anyone has a copy of this can you please send me a link. Thanks!!
Alright! Sorry for being so absent today! I was building a tool so you can all check your own names on demand.
I am asking that you not talk about it on Hugging Face. I'm sure word will get there eventually, but I'd like to avoid them accessing this as much as possible. Feel absolutely free to spread around Tumblr.
AO3 search tool is here! Use page 1 to search scraped fics by username. Use page 2 to search by work ID (which you'll need to do if you're looking for an anonymous work).
Or you can use this version, which is strongly recommended if you've published more than about 20 fics on the username you're searching.
If you're unsure which to use:
The first link is better if your entire username is a common word. For example, if you're username is just "bread" then you probably can't search yourself in the second link. The first version is way slower, so I recommend trying the second link first and using the first link as a backup option if the second fails.
The first link contains a page to search by work ID. This is good if you have an anonymous or orphaned fic, since that's not going to appear by searching your username.
The second link is better if you have a LOT of fics. It will give you a count of fics so you don't have to add them up. It will show the top 2,000 work results found.
If you have more than 2,000 published works, first off, I am jealous of your motivation. But second, that won't display right on the public version of the tools. You can send an ask or DM to have me do a custom search for you if you have more than 2,000 total works under 1 username.
You can also ask or DM if your entire username is a common word, because you're likely to get drowned out of the search results in that case. Try the tool first, but if it returns a lot of author results for your search, and YOUR name isn't in the results, ask me! There's a decent chance you're in there, but one of the tool's weak points is searching extremely common words.
In case this post breaches containment: this is a tool that only has access to the work IDs, titles, author names, chapter counts, and hit counts of the scraped fics for this most recent scrape discovered in April 2025. There is no other work data in this tool. This never had the content of your works loaded to it, only info to help you check if your works were scraped. If you need additional metadata, I can search my offline copy for you if you share a work ID number and tell me what data you're looking for. I will never search the full work text for anyone, but I can check things like word counts and tags.
Please come yell if the tool stops working, and I'll fix as fast as I can. Version 1 is slow as hell, but it does load eventually. Give it up to 10 minutes, and if it seems down after that, please alert me via ask! Anons are on if you're shy. Version 2 typically loads results within 1 minute and handles most users well.
On mobile, enable screen rotation and turn your phone sideways. It's a litttttle easier to use like that. It works better if you can use desktop.

-inspired by chapter 23 of @cassiopeiasara's fic titled: Hold Me Tight (and don't let go) (I highly recommend reading the whole thing tho! It's a lovely collection of bathena goodness!!)
Some lovely Bathena fan art in these trying times.
