Is credit/attribution required? Feature image for blog post and Pinterest.

[katieq94540168]

Is credit/attribution required if using Adobe stock photos as a feature image for blog post? Does it have to be written on the stock photo itself? This image would feature on the homepage of a blog, not the article itself.

What about using a stock photo on an image designed to be pinned to Pinterest? Can you use it with a blog title underneath it to advertise your blog post on the site? Does the credit/attribution also have to be written on the stock photo itself?

Thank you.

Hi Katie,

Thanks for reaching out to the Adobe Stock community.

For both blog post and for Pinterest, I would suggest you to include a credit line to the photographer if using an unmodified image from Adobe Stock.

If you are modifying the image then a credit line becomes optional (The image is considered modified when the final modified version of the image shows no resemblance with the original image).

Note: The credit line should be mentioned on the image itself

Hope this information helps!

Feel free to update this thread in case of any additional questions.
