7. Frequently asked questions

Can I use images I've seen on the Internet?

No, without express authorization from the author. Yes, if the license attached to the work corresponds to the use you wish to make of it.

On Flickr, for example, some pictures are offered under a CC license, others with the © symbol. You should therefore ask for authorization in the second case, but also if the CC license prohibits modification of the work or commercial use, and these are the two uses you need.

You can also use so-called "royalty-free" image databases and pay a flat fee to cover the desired uses. Like Cachem.fr , which presents ten sites with free, royalty-free images, you'll easily find lists of sites offering such images.
