Copyright issues

The Front article takes images from i-stock (www.istockphoto.com), so I've had a look on there for inspiration for my piece. The only problem is that it requires an account to be opened (not a problem), but payments (in cash form, quite a problem) to use people's pictures are required. Arse.

My thinking of a way around this is thus: I get someone to take a picture of me playing the guitar and then photoshop it so it looks a bit funky (like the Front image). Copyright problem solved. That or I'll try and use one of these stock photo sites that I've just Googled.
