Epilogue

I’m not a lawyer, but here is my understanding of the rules should you want to extract images from this page:

  • Most of the images are from istockphoto.com. You would need to pay for each image that you want to use.
  • It is unlikely that Sandro Botticelli is going to come round claiming his intellectual property.
  • The alligator picture is under an attribution license from hyku.  An attribution is in the image.  If you extract that one, a link back to this page would be pleasant but not mandatory.
