Show HN: Free (yours forever) handpicked illustrations for your app or website

The process of finding and using these illustrations frustrates me. I'm never sure if I'm infringing copyrights or if I have to add confusing attributions to the artist or platform... I've found several interesting libraries but .svg format (where I can change the illustrations to fit my needs) is often paid.
So - as a designer I have a bunch of illustrations sitting on my hard drive - I decided to make ilustra [2] this weekend to give them away for free and help solve this problem.

A bit ironic that you say "I'm never sure if I'm infringing copyrights or if I have to add confusing attributions to the artist or platform" and then the website you've created does nothing in order to clear this up. You say "free", but not under what terms or what "free" really means here. In fact, "free" is not even mentioned in any other place than the website <title/>.
As a suggestion, add a specific license to all the work (a Create Commons one or similar) and write out the terms explicitly, even if they are just "Do whatever you want, no warranty included".
