Where to get content for material
The internet is awash with free-to-use content. It is advised to make full use of free images, videos and sounds when creating content for GeologyRocks. Please ensure that the material is free to use and what conditions are attached to the material before you submit. Also, remember that GeologyRocks itself contains numerous free geological images; we might already have a suitable image for you to use in your content!
Some useful sites to obtain free images and videos are:
- Yotophoto - this is a search engine to other content
- WikiCommons - an excellent resource which is easy to navigate
- Earth Sciences Image Bank - free for educational use, so is fine for GeologyRocks
- GeoImages group on Flickr - some images are not free to use, but there are some very good images here.
- Earth Science Teaching Resource on Flickr - all images are free to use and there are some excellent rocks specimen pictures here.
