Does anyone know where one might acquire images of drivers (not cars) for "commercial" usage? Anyone here have taken any and are willing to share them for a reasonable price? I'm interested in doing some concept work for my portfolio and I really don't want to go the usual just "lend images from google" road.

Google image search has a ”free to use” option. Flickr as well. Wikimedia commons also.

Teams have media banks, but sadly most are password protected.

All content from the RedBull content pool is free to use. Maybe you could search there. https://www.redbullcontentpool.com/s...ediaType=Photo

No, you need to have an account to download. When I write articles to rallit.fi I’m allowed to use that and the team media banks. For my blog I use only creative commons stuff or amateur pictures that I have a permission to use.

Thanks for your responses. RedBull Content Pool and Team media banks, while having the best selection, only provide images for "editorial" use. In my concept, images would be part of design, sort of driver profile images morphed into user interface, so the commercial license applies. Regarding Google, Wiki Commons and Flickr license filtering, they are not really that trustworthy. In Wiki commons, a lot of "authors own work" is not really theirs and I've been in hot waters using photos from Flickr before, as photographers aren't even aware a lot of times that their work is subject to any kind of licensing.
You mentioned using amateur pictures that you have a permission to use, AnttiL, do you have some certain people you go to for images or do you see what you like and get in contact?
