Getty images are free?

I was looking at this image in the new free Getty images library and it made me think of the expression "Up the creek without a paddle, except in this case, he seems to be without a boat.  :)  Don't know why that made me think of the US budget.  :(

Anyway, you can find the free Getty images here.  You can use them as long as you use the provided embed code that includes the logo and link in formation for Getty.  Smart move I think.  I suspect that Getty images will be everywhere, giving them a brand recognition advantage over competitors like iStockPhoto.
