We offer images and backgrounds in both vector and raster formats. The right format for you depends on how you plan to use the file.
Vector formats
EPS – Editable in professional vector software (e.g., Adobe Illustrator). Can be opened in some non-vector programs, but the image will be flattened into a single layer.
PDF – Versatile and compatible with many programs. When opened in vector software, individual elements can still be edited.
Raster (non-vector) formats
PNG – Flat images, often with transparent backgrounds. Great for web use, overlays, and simple projects, but not editable at the element level.
JPG – Flat images without transparency. Smaller in size, widely supported, but also not element-editable.
Introducing Snapshots
Snapshots are a new addition to our image library. Unlike traditional still images, Snapshots are pulled directly from our 4K video footage, giving you a fast and consistent way to match your static visuals with moving content.
Each Snapshot is linked to the video it was sourced from, so you can create thumbnails, ads, or supporting visuals that perfectly align with your video project.
Over one million Snapshots are now available, with filter options for model releases and property releases, ensuring you can find content cleared for your needs.
Snapshots expand creative flexibility — they’re ideal when you want visual consistency across multiple platforms without sourcing separate images and footage.
Which should I choose?
Choose EPS or PDF (vector) if you need to resize, customize, or edit individual elements (e.g., logos, shapes, or graphics).
Choose PNG if you need a transparent background for layering in presentations, web design, or video projects.
Choose JPG if you just need a quick, universally supported image with no edits required.
Choose Snapshots if you want to pair still images with matching video content or need quick, ready-to-use visuals sourced from high-quality footage.
Common uses
Use case | Best format(s) | Why |
Logos & branding | EPS, PDF | Scales cleanly, editable elements |
Web graphics/icons | PNG | Transparency support, sharp on screens |
Photographs | JPG | Smaller file size, universal compatibility |
Print design | PDF, EPS | High-quality, editable, scalable |
Presentations | PNG, JPG | Lightweight, easy to insert |
Video thumbnails/ads | Snapshots | Matches directly with video footage |
In short: Vectors = flexible editing. Rasters = ready-to-use visuals. Snapshots = stills that match your footage.
