Like you know images that we are able to edit and use as our work as long as we do not sell it or claim it is ours...Do you know where i can find these images?Is there like a safe realiable image directory or something that we can use and edit?

Google does not link images from sites with virus mostly.. and if you wish to not get any virus, just get an anti-virus..

no any other site.

Planet Render I already know but it's kind of for cartoonish and things like that,not many real life photos like desk,chairs .. you know?
I want something that aims at imaging everything,every image they find. But it must be able to be used and edited if you don't claim the image is yours or if you do not sell the works...You know?
Let's say I wanted to get a picture of a buisness sign so all I do is go to that site and save the pic to my desktop and edit it , you know?

The thing i'm afraid of using google is some of those images have copyright on them and all those things you know?

If you use copyrighted materiel for own entertainment purpose, it's not.

And I don't think you are going to start commercion with theese signatures.....Aren't you?

There are different types of Copyrights out there Altair, some may even be under CC. (Creative Commons)
And depending of the CC, even using the image without author's permission may be forbidden.
And depending of the country you are in, you may even be sued for it.

So if you're worried about using images under Copyright or Creative Commons, search for images on sites and forums where authors post them
themselves for others to use. And you can always ask the users for their permission for you to use the image, if they've not stated that can it be used.

Well question is,is there any site aimed at this?

Mate, generally the images you cannot use have writing in the background on the image so it is useless, also, if you cannot use it, the poster ma have put something on the website so you cannot right click the image.
