 flickr doesnt let you choose a public domain licence, photos are labeled "no attribution required" (unless i forgot)

Ok so I went ahead and selected some photos and made a new set here:
https://secure.flickr.com/photos/crondeau/sets/72157636563358724/



These photos are licensed under the WTFPL license - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WTFPL
Why did I choose these? No reason, it's just a mix bag of stuff. 

Looking through these photos though, I realize that I've had a great time and I eat a lot. :)
Happy Thanksgiving!

I'll put together some as well. I'll create a new set on my flickr account and share the link.I promise to do that this weekend! 
Thanks giving weekend  (at least it is in Canada) seems appropriate. :)

Maybe theme reviewers with photograpy, videography or music hobbies could "donate" some of their work, I think that would be the quickest way and it would't be any copyright issues. I can give some photos :)

A WP business account and gallery theme should be enough.

    I'd love to see something WP related where we could all get decent
    quality images, audio, and video samples to use in our demos and
    themes.

    Wouldn't it be great if we had a pool of images on wordpress.org
      that we could use in our themes?
      

      
      I take pictures all the time and would more than happy for
        anyone to use. Perhaps such a site exist already? I don't think
        do though... 
      

      
      It wouldn't need to be complicated, maybe something that
        would look like http://simpledesktops.com
      

      
      I guess the only issue would be to get someone to curate the
        images and then the time to build it... I think I've talked
        myself out if the idea already. :)

          I would assert that the "terms" are invalid, void, and legally
              unenforceable. The images are public domain. Pixaby
            does not hold copyright on the images, and therefore has no
            legal authority to restrict usage.
            
              

            
            Whether you choose to challenge those terms or not is
              up to you, but the images themselves are public domain
              (CC0), and as such would be acceptable for use in Themes.

                      Individual images are mostly cc0,
                        so we can use them.
