Further about copyright, I instinctively want to believe that anything I can find on the Web that doesn¡¯t have a watermark or a specific claim of copyright is there for the sharing. But I am always willing and happy to give credit for the source of the image. Am I correct in that instinct? That is, if it doesn¡¯t state somewhere that the author is claiming a copyright, can it most likely be used? Is an acceptable strategy to state whatever is known about the origin of the image and invite the photographer/artist to contact us if there is any objection to its use?
?
Any illumination you can shed on this topic is appreciated.
