    <p>It depends on what you're trying to do exactly. Are you creating templates for a specific niche? I.e. like cell phones? Or do you want to make more generic templates that appeals to a broader audience.</p> <p>one thing you have to be careful of is copyright. Far too many times you see people making templates and using any image they want. This is illegal (in America at least) as you don't own the copyrights to those images. People try to argue that you aren't selling the images, but the layout and that's simply not true. The appeal of a template is largely in part to the images used. When you purchase a template, it never comes out the same because you aren't using the same images. So you are using someone else's work to enhance your own and is the same thing as putting someone's image on product packaging, for example.</p> <p>As to where you can find images...that's up to you and your needs. You can certainly go to stock sites like iStock and purchase some. They have some fair rates but many sites do have different terms for template designers. It may fall into their extended licenses terms and that makes them significantly more expensive because they like to assume you're going to be making millions of dollars with your templates, which is probably not true.</p> <p>If you want product specific images, the best bet would be to go to the sites you want, for example, Samsung if doing electronics and send them a contact message asking them their terms for usage of their products. They may not give you license to use them in templates but you can try. I know for a fact many cell phone manufacturers have open usage for their images to retailers because you're buying and selling their products. In your case you aren't so it might not be the same.</p> <p>In conclusion, after such a long post (apologies) your best bet is to take them yourself or purchase them from reputable sites if you can't get the permissions you need from the owners.</p>
