I am brand new to Youtube so I wanted to throw this question out there for those of you who may be more experienced.

Today, I got an e-mail from Youtube inviting me to monetize my videos and gain money from them. I know this doesn't mean I'll become a partner, which is fine. (I want my own thumbnails so bad!!!) But I had a few questions about what is and isn't okay to put in Youtube videos.

I know you can't put songs in them unless they're royalty free songs or stock ones from iMovie and things like that... does the same go for pictures of products or celebrities you get off the internet? I have a few tutorial videos with pictures of celebs in them, and I know a lot of other channels do too. I just wanted to get some answers of what's legal and not legal. Please, somebody enlighten me about this whole process!!!

Thanks. <3 Lacey

I think it'a fine adding photos into your videos, maybe you could just add a link to the website you got them from in the video description, but I think you'd be fine! :)
