Hello friends, perhaps some of you are familiar with the website footyrenders.com. I'm planning to open a YouTube channel, but I haven't figured out how to find copyright-free PNGs yet. If I use the PNGs from this website in my YouTube videos, would I encounter any copyright issues? Does anyone have any information or ideas about this?
hello,copyright problems ? :)

if you are using copyrighted anything, you'll always have a chance of getting a strike. but if those images in your video, are used in a transformative way, you can qualify under fair use. so, if you get a false strike despite fair use, you can always dispute it.
Also be cautious about thumbnails. if you use the image you borrowed, as a YouTube thumbnail, without transforming or editing it, then it's possible for the owner to strike you.
some people can reupload things and falsely label it as copyright free or creative commons. In such cases you run the risk of getting a strike, should you have borrowed such content without knowing it's true status.
Always transform the content you borrow and you won't run into problems.
