Title: iStock photo New Facebook App with FREE images
Post by: Roxxstock on February 20, 2012, 16:38: http://hexus.net/tech/items/software/35077-just-time-valentines-day-istockphoto-launches-free-e-card-app-facebook-users/ (http://hexus.net/tech/items/software/35077-just-time-valentines-day-istockphoto-launches-free-e-card-app-facebook-users/)

I wonder if the photographs they give away for free earn any credits for the photographer.
