Students
Marine Themes is a commercial
Stock Library and image
database, where we sell the right to reproduce our images
to cover the costs of creating and running this site as well
as the massive costs associated with capturing the images
in the field.
Therefore we require a fee for all
image use. However we do recognize that students usually have
very limited budgets, funded by part time jobs or a small
allowance. We also feel a responsibility to nurture your interest
in our planet, especially our massive and mysterious oceans.
So we can offer two methods for all students to use our images.
1/ The first
is free access
and use of the large watermarked preview images in the database.
These are easily accessed by browsing the database via the
category tree or via the Keyword Search field and, by clicking
on the thumbnails, opening the larger preview images. Copy
the watermarked image to your hard drive using your operating
systems method for copying internet image files. Details can
be found here on our
How To Use This Site
web page. Please read our copyright
notice first as these are not Royalty Free (RF) images.
Do not remove or attempt to remove the watermark.
2/ The second
option is to pay a fee for unwatermarked images.
Send us an email
stating that you are a student, where the image(s) will be
used and which image(s) you wish to use. Tell us the
amount you can afford for that use. We will reply
by return email as to what we can offer. If we can agree on
a small fee we will supply unwatermarked scans for one particular
use.
You can also use our normal image selection and ordering
process found in the image
database, supplying the above information in the comments
field.
Please note that this offer is for students only and in no
way allows for commercial use, further distribution, additional
use, storage of the image file(s), re-selling or use on the
internet.
