Tucson, AZ, Sept. 15, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Leading free stock image library Freerange Stock today announced the relaunch of https://freerangestock.com, introducing a fully redesigned and rebuilt platform that makes it faster and easier to find and download high-quality free photos and illustrations.

The single biggest change: registration is no longer required to download images. Since its founding in 2006, Freerange has required a simple registration before downloading, but now visitors can download without creating an account or signing in. The nearly one million users with existing accounts, or new users who register, will find improved tools including saved collections, download history, better account management, and an improved contributor workflow.
“The site is faster, the site is cleaner, the site is better organized. The registration requirement became the last point of friction, so we dropped it,” said Chance Agrella, Founder of Freerange Stock. “We’ve improved user account infrastructure in many ways, but the option to not use it at all is what I’m most excited about.”
A Completely Rebuilt Freerange Stock
The relaunch goes far beyond a visual redesign. Freerange Stock has been rebuilt from the ground up with entirely new frontend and backend technology, delivering a substantially faster experience and streamlined access to the entire image-discovery process.
Among the new and improved features are:
- No registration required - Visitors can download free images without creating an account or signing in.
- Faster search and browsing - The new platform delivers major performance improvements, improved site organization and expanded descriptions for enhanced image discoverability.
- Expanded image library - The Freerange library of high-quality free images is greatly expanded and better than ever, with an emphasis on diverse populations of people in action.
- Redesigned contributor profiles - New portfolio-focused public profiles give contributors a better way to showcase their work and help users discover more of their imagery.
- Improved contributor tools - Image creators have a more streamlined way to upload, organize and manage their work.
- Emphasis on human-created imagery only - Freerange Stock does not accept images produced entirely by AI, maintaining its focus on photography and illustration created by real contributors.
- Saved collections - Registered users can create named collections and organize favorite images for future reference, without downloading.
“The technology behind the site has changed as dramatically as the experience on the surface,” said Agrella. “We rebuilt the platform because we wanted to remove the limitations of the old system, not just give it a facelift. The result is a faster site, a better workflow for contributors, and a platform to launch the next 20 years of Freerange.”
The new Freerange is available now at https://freerangestock.com.
