Stock Photography
When looking for images to use in your photo-manipulations, avatars, site layouts, etc., it is necessary to make sure that you do not break any image licenses and therefore infringe upon someone's copyright. Simply because you found the image via Google Image Search doesn't mean that you automatically own all of the rights to it.
