I guess Google wasn't oblivious to the fact that any time someone is looking for an image to use for a web project, they search for it on Google Images and then steal the first one the see without shame. At least I tend to flick through to page 2 of the search results, you know, to be a bit more subtle but equally wrong. So Google recently their Official Google Blog that you can now use the advanced search filter to search images with certain usage licenses. Looking for an image you're actually allowed to steal? Just turn on that filter. Go ahead and try a search. Apparently there's even a few old photos of me you can steal. Unfortunately if you're looking for VentureWeb photos, it looks like us greedy folk are only willing to share 6 incredibly exciting photos of Olly presenting at a Drupal night in Vancouver.
