Default Only private photos?

I don't have many private photos. So my question is: Is it allowed to use photos from sites like Pixabay or Pexels for layouts? If so, should I give credit?
Thanks for help!

In my years in digi scrapping I have seen many people use stock photos in their layouts either because they do not have their own or they simply do not want those on the internet ya know? It's art. I say if it is a royalty free image go for it, make are YOUR way.

I also think that photoless layouts are very underrated. I hope you find way that works for you

These stock photo site usually say to credit the website. For the use we make I think we don't have to credit the specific person that took the photo, just that you took the photo from pixabay or whatever other image site.

I use unsplash, freepik, pexels or pixabay for the occasional photos I can't find in my stash.
