I found some pictures of a possible dorm for a camp my character will go to. I created them as backgrounds and published for review. Two days later, today, my images got rejected due to trademarks and references to business names. My images don’t have any watermarks as far as I can see, could someone help me out as to why they got rejected? Thank you for your time, Kaley
I’m not exactly sure, looks ok to me. But maybe the pictures on the wall? Or the shape of the light on the celing might look like a business logo? Honestly, I don’t know.
That background is COPYRIGHTED. Do NOT use images from google. U need to use public domain websites, and ONLY publick domain websites. Images from google are ALL COPYRIGHTED.
Even though the image does not have a watermark or trademark, images can still be copyrighted. All Episode really has to do is a simple image reverse search. In this case, the background belongs to another visual/interactive app. Please be mindful about what you are downloading off the internet. If the images are copyrighted, you may be subject to legal consequences. Public domain images are the way to go. Otherwise feel free to edit one of Episode’s backgrounds to suit your needs.
