Don't think so. The very first image has "Some rights reserved". If you click on that, it says "Attribution — You must give appropriate credit, provide a link to the license, and indicate if changes were made. You may do so in any reasonable manner, but not in any way that suggests the licensor endorses you or your use." I don't want to do that. Or even if I wanted, I don't want to spend time figuring out what exactly each clause in the license means. F* that, I'll just take the damn picture myself.


You think that adding a small tag that tays, "Picture by X, license is http://whatever" is some high burden? You've transcended first-world problems and started in on the negative numbers.


No. Adding the tag is no burden. The burden is finding out what EXACTLY needs to be added.

EDIT: Sometimes it's enough to mention the author, sometimes you need to provide link to the license as well, etc, etc.


If you click the link, it tells you what's required. I stand by what I said.
