Japan Stock Images

So, while trawling the web looking for free material to use as placeholder graphics for a demo I'm working on I stumbled across this website.

For anybody making a VN that is set in Japan, this site will definitely be of some use to you, whether you use the images in your games, as inspiration, or just as placeholders.
From what I can figure out, as long as the material you're using the images for is free then they don't mind, if you're planning to use it for commercial use then you must contact the site first.
Unfortunately my own VN isn't set in Japan so I have little use for it but I thought that it could benefit some of the people on these forums.

Not necessary; I've checked the site and they have cute photos of sky, flowers, animals etc.
