Re: Photos used in quizzes
In theory you can't use them without citing the copyright, regardless of whether it's for commercial use or not!mps247 wrote:Something else I wasn't sure of, that somebody on here might know - if you were actually using the photos for non-commercial purposes, such as the quiz on this site, what legal action could be taken against you for not citing the photographer? I mean, is plagiarism against the law if you're not making any money out of it?
However, by providing an explicit link to the picture (for the user to press) rather than embedding it (so the user sees it automatically) would make it completely legal - as far as I can tell!
