Everything on GraphicStock is royalty free.
How am I allowed to use your content?
Our
content may be used for nearly any project, commercial or otherwise,
including print projects, multimedia, games, the internet, and films, so
long as substantial value is added to the content. (For example,
incorporating an image into an advertisement qualifies, while reposting
the image with no modification or incorporation does not.) Once you
download a file it is yours to keep and use forever in your projects,
royalty-free, even if you change your subscription or cancel your
account.

What is "substantial value"?
Substantial
value means that you are adding to the stock file such that the
completed work is no longer recognizable as the original file. This can
be as simple as editing a stock file into a larger media project, or
even just adding text.

What does royalty-free mean?
Royalty-free
is a type of license that allows unlimited use of content in media
projects, and without having to pay royalty fees.
