DESCRIPTION
When I analyzed vecteezy.com, there was a large search box above the fold on the homepage for me to search for images. Beneath the search box were some examples of what topics users may wish to search for. I liked the inclusion of recommendations because many users would need help to think creatively rather than to be left alone without suggestions. After testing out some keyword searches, I found that the most common results were emoji-type pictures that I would use in a Google Chat conversation, etc. 2/23/2025

Editor’s Note:
Unmask Parasites scan updated on 7/12/2024. Old results:
Unmask Parasites said it found 1 suspicious inline script and 1 hidden external link:
(function(){var js = “window[‘__CF$cv$params’]={r:’7a5a2a431a962270′,m:’zl5Ugp4ZAMSCl9kWnZyZC56KWWQBdfyZ.oh7HoBJziM-16784…
Hidden link – g.vecteezy[.]com/ns.html?id=GTM-
Though Unmask Parasites discovered a hidden linek on vecteezy.com that it deems suspicious and a suspicious inline script, we graded vecteezy.com as relatively safe because no other vendor found an issue with it.
The overall grade has been upgraded from Relatively Safe to Safe.
