Most free material websites only focus on one project, such as: pictures are just pictures, and illustrations are just illustrations. The GAHAG Japanese website to be introduced in this article is very special. It integrates various types of materials such as photos, illustrations, pictures, paintings, etc., and the quantity is very large. It is not only suitable for personal but also commercial use. People who use it frequently recommend collecting it.
GAHAG Japanese material website introduction
After entering the GAHAG website, the homepage will list the latest added materials. People who cannot read Japanese can use Chrome’s full-page translation function, so that the entire website will immediately become Chinese:
However, the classification function of this website is not very detailed, so it is recommended to search from the tag button under each material, or if you understand Japanese, you can also search for keywords:
After I press the AI tag button, the screen will list the materials that meet this condition, and all of them provide AI images:
There are also some commonly used tag buttons at the bottom of the website. If you can’t find them under the pictures, you can also look for them here. In addition, there are two lines of Japanese text at the bottom. The top line indicates that all materials are CC0 licensed and can be used for personal and commercial purposes:
Photo material comes from all over the world, not just Japan:
There are also some oil painting picture materials, which are very rare:
After entering the inner page of the material you are interested in, if it is a photo, picture, oil painting, etc., scroll down and you will find the download button. AI illustrations will provide two types, pictures and vector files, which are the two hyperlinks below PUBLIC DOMAIN in the picture below:
If you don’t understand, just use the full-page translation, and you will immediately understand what it means. The left is the downloaded image, and the right is the vector image:
What’s more special is that each material will provide a “mini-game before and after modification”. Go to the inner page and click the Japanese button on the lower left side of the picture, and there will be a small change in the picture. Test whether you can spot it:
However, it is a pity that these material websites do not provide the original source, only stating that there is evidence that it is CC0 licensed. For those who are worried, after you find the material you want to download and use, I suggest you ask the person in charge of the website. There is a form at the bottom of the website that you can fill out.
