I want to use some of stock photos which are selling on stock websites like istockphoto.com. I won’t include the orginal files to the final download zip file. Can i use the images on my next theme if i purchase a single licence or with their watermark.

Thanks in advance

You could buy an iStock photo and put it in your preview, but not in the download package. If you only buy the photo once, you can only use it in one preview.

And our “foxy” site admin has spoken ;) But yeah, I agree with Lance on this one

The best thing is to use your own pictures in the preview. It gives your file some uniqueness.
