It is that of a thoughtless designer or decision-maker. They need to think more deeply about how RF stock images are used. The stock photo company could also contribute to the problem. Many companies don't offer the process that make the image buyer aware to all the places the stock image has been used. See my point`? But if it is known that there is no process for tracking where the image is placed, it is the fault of an unaware design or decison-maker. There needs to have be awareness of the enitire situation and a practice of deeper thinking as a process for designing. Uh...er... A more thoughtful system needs to be in place for all constituents.<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('6748','Joel'); return false;">Reply</a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('6748','Joel','It\'s not exactly stock art itself that is the problem. \n\nIt is that of a thoughtless designer or decision-maker.

It is that of a thoughtless designer or decision-maker. They need to think more deeply about how RF stock images are used.

The stock photo company could also contribute to the problem. Many companies don’t offer the process that make the image buyer aware to all the places the stock image has been used.
