This background is from Pinterest…I swear…
I visit Pinterest a lot
But it’s been edited with the text “galaxy music”
Yay!! Thank you soo much !
Not sure where that background came from, besides Pinterest, but yah it looks copyrighted, and ahhh I see the text. XDD
So…I’m just surprised how could the author use it…
A lot of authors use backgrounds off google/pinterest, so not surprised, it happens a lot. We’re trying to avoid them from using it because it’s copyright.
Yeahhh…it would be sooo good if we could use them…
But still, dont wanna take the risk for my story being taken down…
Thank you sooo much for your help!!
I noticed this right away so this would be copyrighted but they clearly missed it or had never seen these star wars figures before. So the responsibility will be on you because they don’t notice everything.
Moved to Art Resources since this is about backgrounds. Make sure to check out our Forum Tutorial for more info about creating topics, and feel free to PM me if you’ve got questions.
You definitely can’t use any of them from Pinterest and Google, even with credit.
Not every copyrighted image contains a watermark therefore it’s not a foolproof way of testing if it’s a safe to use image.
Some of these images will belong to other apps as well, like one of your examples you’ve included…
(This one in the middle)
Is actually a background from the Choices app, therefore they own the copyright to that image.
Credit doesn’t permit useage. To remain on the safe side use images from people’s drives, or websites such as pixabay.
There’re tons of backgrounds without a watermark but they’re still copyrighted. I could suggest maybe looking for an “Episode backgrounds” category on pininterest and then sharing the backgrounds here to ask if someone knows the owner. This is gonna be a long process tho.
Other alternatives would be to check out Episode life, Unsplash, Pixabay, and the drives of bg creators like @/CinnamonToast.
