Hello, I’m wondering if I could use textures from CG-textures in my project without paying for the license? Since you get a free 15 mega limit per day.
So I’m just wondering if I could use these textures that it lets me have for free in my project, that might be sold at some point. Thanks a ton.
(If not that’s fine there’s always TextureMate)

Taken from the agreement from when you make an account
I was just making sure the free account fell under the license.
Thx.
Only difference between the accounts is the daily limit count. Else the agreement applies to all.
