An unedited image. Usually it's royalty free.

Oh and I'm asking because someone said:
You should do some stock of yourself!
You'd be fun to paint!

Means you don't have to pay for it. On deviantArt that's normally the case with stock images. But say you're a company looking to use a picture of a flower but don't want to hire a photographer you would buy a stock image from another company.

It's not that it's uneditied, because they well may be.

A stock photo is a photo that has been submitted to a stock image website or collection where any person may use the photo for what they wish to do. Sometimes you have to pay for using it, other times you don't.

Royalty free images mean that you don't have to pay the owner if you're using it for commercial purposes (if you're making money off the photo, such as in a magazine). There may be a charge for using it, but there won't be an extra charge so that the owner doesn't get a slice of your profits.

Thanks, I understand it now :)
