Correct misinterpretations of free images. One of the main complaints about free images is lack of quality when compared with a promotional images.

This is not the same as a copyright fee, but is charged separately, as is the cost of the provision of the image. It can be charged where an image is out of copyright, and reflects the possession of the image by a collection.
