I checked now :) It was extremely easy to find out - it's all written on the community page ... I copy -paste the text here :
" Stock images by Hive artists for the use of Hivers, allowing us to reward them for their work.
Description
Every day on Hive authors are using stock images. I use them on occasion myself and when I add that source link as a thank you to the creator of that image on the free stock photo sites I wish I could give them a percentage beneficiary from that post. Except they probably don't have an account on Hive, so I can't.
Yet Hive has lots of talented artists and photographers. What if they wanted to offer some of their work up for use by other Hivers for the chance of a return of a percentage beneficiary every time someone used that picture? We could then be supporting our own content creators and giving these artists an ongoing income stream for their efforts."
Thank you! So attribution and a courtesy 'tip' would be in order. What if I want to do something strange to that grasshopper. So many ideas come to mind :))
It is a great, alien-looking creature.
I don't know in general ...with my stock contributions :) every creative intervention is free and welcomed.
