Fotolia
Fotolia was an online marketplace where photographers and artists could sell royalty-free images, illustrations, and videos. Buyers, such as businesses or designers, purchased these digital assets to use in marketing, websites, or creative projects, usually through a pay-per-download or subscription model. It made high-quality visual content accessible and affordable for a wide audience, supporting creative professionals and organizations. In 2015, Fotolia was acquired by Adobe and eventually integrated into Adobe Stock, continuing to serve as a resource for licensed images within Adobe’s ecosystem.
