Copyright Issues

I used the website www.identifont.com to source my font:


Gill Sans; originally produced for the London & North Eastern Railway, and used for all signs, advertising, and timetables.


To get fonts from this website you have to purchase them online. New customers will have to fill out contact details, font licensing and a payment account form. Once downloaded, the fonts are nonrefundable unless they are damaged or corrupted. In this case you can inform the site within 30 days of purchase and will be supplied with replacements or refunded. All the font packages cost $39 dollers. This must be paid via credit card or paypal.

Shutterstock: When using images from shutterstock you have to create a license. This allows you to download any images from the website, at a cost. The other option is to only register, this allows you limited access to the sites images and you are only aloud to browse and create light boxes of your selections. The costs are broken into two categories. A standard license and an enhanced license. 


iStockphoto: Generic images are categorized to make it easy to find and purchase using credits bought off the site. Depending on how many credits are purchased determines what type of image can be purchased.


Getty Images: Getty Images works the same as iStock photo in the way images are categorized and presented, however purchasing is done directly through credit card, not through credits.
