Resources

The following section lists some places where some of the resources (fonts, images, etc.) used in creating this product were found. There are, of course, a number of different places to obtain resources all over the web. However, it is often difficult to find fonts, images, and sounds that are permitted for use in commercial projects that are also free.

Images

This product uses images found on one or more of the following locations...

Public Domain Pictures
https://www.publicdomainpictures.net
A very nice repository of public domain images.

Pixabay

Fonts

This product uses images found on one or more of the following locations...

Font Squirrel
https://www.fontsquirrel.com
Font Squirrel a site that claims to have a larger grouping of free fonts with licensed permissions for use in commercial works. However, the site does not necessarily have all of the license sign-offs on each and every font and claims to only state that there appears to be no restrictions on commercial use (though they do have the license for a good number of them). Further investigation may be required.

Ten By Twenty
https://www.tenbytwenty.com
Has a small number of free fonts for which license to use in commercial works is granted without fee.
