Questions about these colorful backgrounds
Can I use these colorful backgrounds for free?
Yes, for personal and commercial projects. All we ask is a link back to BigFoto.com; the box at the top of the page has a credit link you can copy.
Which colorful backgrounds fill the whole frame?
The close-ups of pencils, buttons, marbles, wool, straws and confetti and the coloured stone walls are colour from edge to edge, so they work as backgrounds behind text; the rainbows and festival photos are scenes with more going on.
