...does anyone know if the photos here are "royalty free" to use? I do not intend to sell the photo itself but some of the photos are so gooood that my company would feel honoured if we may use the one or the other on our web-page www.pixum.com or in our Newsletters. Sure I would be glad to mention the photographer if we use a photos.

Can anyone tell me who is responsible for this page and how to get in contact with this person?

Basically all the images remain the authors property. Therefore you would need permission from the individual authors to use their images, rather than permission from the site administrator. If you select the authors name it will take you to their personal page where you can send them a personal message, sometimes their email address may be displayed also.

Hope this helps.

ok, thx!
