I need help: I was given a flash drive and I was going to start downloading pic and overlays for my story. Then I found backgrounds on there already. I asked the person who gave the flash drive to me if it was empty, they told me yes! NO NO sweetheart it wasn’t!
For starters does anyone knows who this avatar belongs to-
And I couldn’t have just download background because when I do, I always put the creators name on the file Example;
I have a lot of unknown backgrounds I found on this flash drive, I will upload the background and hopefully you guys can tell me who they belong to so I can put the names on these backgrounds thank you guys!

So sorry this happened to you!
Here are the backgrounds I found:
I really need the name of the creator for this background-GORGEOUS!!!
I bought the drive off of craigslist-NEVER AGAIN!!! but all the unknown backgrounds are there.
If anyone can tell me the creator’s name like background and name of creator would be (omg) so great! I got the drive for dirt cheap, so yeah, it’s a Phillips flash drive with like a 2 or 3 hundred gigs on it and I got it for 30 bucks! Basically the person gave it to me!

Not sure about all of the backgrounds, but these ones …
Are definitely from the Choices app. They are definitely not free for use. They belong to that app.
As for this one…
It looks familiar. I think it may be from All the Wrong Reasons on Chapters. I’m not 100% sure. But I think it is. It’s safer to air on the side of caution and not use that either, as it would belong to their app.
Several others I have seen on Pinterest, which seems to be the place this person has gotten all of the images, in which place none are safe to use as it would breach copyright.

One of those is from Episode, actually, which might explain why it looks familiar. We have this one in the art catalog:

I wasn’t referring to that one. I know this is from episode. I was referring to the one in the middle.

I was up all night looking on Pinterest and episode life trying to identify these backgrounds and I posted on Instagram also. I’m glad I got into doing this, this is a lot of fun to do, but the last thing I want to do is break guild lines. I just went ahead and deleted all of them because I am not a gambler, I like to play it safe. Thank you guys for helping me with this, Thank so much!!!
Really though, it would be me that something like this happens to-OMG!!!

No problem. It is almost impossible to locate the origin of Pinterest images. It is definitely better to have that attitude, being safe and not using them, than risking it
If you’re looking for backgrounds, then there are plenty of people who make and share them here on the forums, and others, like myself, who have drives, free and paid, where you can find images to use in your story.
