Removing your image

Updated 29 October 2026

You can delete any of your images yourself, at any time.

Your images on the account page: each image card shows its views and downloads, with a Delete link.

A published image

  1. Log in and click Account at the top of the page.
  2. Under Your images, find the image and click Delete.
  3. Confirm. The image is removed from the site straight away, with its stats.

An image in review

Click Delete next to it under Submissions. We won't review it.

An image you haven't sent yet

Click Remove next to it on the upload page.

Copies people already downloaded

Images are shared under CC0, which can't be taken back. Deleting an image removes it from Free Image Vault, but copies people downloaded before then may still be used.

Removing everything

To delete all your images and your account at once, use Close account on your account page.
