I had struggled to find unique images to my blog post, and i don't want to spend money on buying images. [Really is that joke] so i had googled for fixing this problem and i succeed.
So I feel that I want to share this on BHW.

Here's the trick:
1: First Go to ShutterStock and search for your desired image

2: copy paste the url saveshutter.com

3: press at search button

4: press at download button
 
This exact method was shared like a week or two ago
Thanks anyways
 
I've missed the other post that was shared a week or two ago. I'm glad it was shared again!
 
Good one. Really a time saver for designers. Ty
 
Aren't these images not available for commercial reuse?

Or does the fact you are using a shutterstock image without the watermark lead people to believe you have purchased the image?

Doesn't matter what "people" believe, you still don't own rights if shutter comes knocking. Cool share for sure, but you have to ask yourself if its worth the worry given the fact that there several sites with copyright-free images for free use. For me it's not, but I'm sure that's a popular site.

Great information! You can also visit freepik.com which is something similar to shutter not with the variety but with quality and easy copyrights. No other tools required!

The site got a DMCA, so its shutting down.

If you still need images, refer to this guide: How to get ShutterStock images for Free

Thanks for the share. Amazing how people can just set up an instant chatbot on FB that handles this on automation and instantly. I just tested it and the bot replied with the link in 1 sec, that's really impressive. Will be putting it to good use!
 
i would not risk it because you don't have the rights and who knows if they can find out if you paid for it or not .... and if they can they will sent a lawyer for sure.
there are good free alternatives without any risk involved.

Yes, I agree with you. There are many other sources like freepik.com to get images for free or you can also get free images from Google by applying usage rights filter in search.
 
Shutter stock keeps a list of websites that paid for a image and how long it is allowed to legally use the image. If they find their image on your website during one of their web searches, they will send your site a DMCA.

such a bullshit. Cmon guys, use your common sense. How can they know if the pic was bought or not, don't be paranoid.

Something like this is very easy to code for a programmer. Last time I checked, and also for most similar sites images are purchased per website. They just need to store in their database what website is authorized to use a photo. Then they use google images, yahoo, or bing images to find offenders. Or they can just buy or code a custom made crawler to crawl the web to find offenders. Also the photographers who take the pictures themselves can use services like Google alert. If it was just so easy to get away with it then everyone would just rip off their images, but if you guys notice many even most blackhats don't. This idea you guys are talking about is nothing new, it's very old. But whatever, do what you want.
