Please, is it possible to have an image for free?

I am in the unfortunate position that I wrote a book, and my printer - unaware of the copyright laws - used one of your images on the book cover - A close up of a female doctor.
I request you kindly allow me the approval for it, as I am not in a position to afford your fees and don't want to breach the copyright law. I hope that you will understand my situation.

Regards

Muhammad A.

Hi Muhammad

Even though I understand the trouble you are in, I cannot give you permission to use the image. You are violating copy right laws and you are risking a law suit using an image without the proper license.

It's not because I don't want to give my images away but because I cannot give my images away without a license agreement, and a license agreement requires money to exchange hands.
I trust that you will find a solution to this problem. Maybe you can get someone to sponsor the image?

Otherwise, have a look at the free images on PI: http://peopleimages.com/search#types:Free Maybe you'll be able to find another image you can use.

Best Regards
