I am designing a website for a small business of mine and have come to find out (or remember) that I have very little artistic talent. The website is just an information source for a physical, retail location. I have a few questions about what sort of images are legal to use.
A) I take a picture of something I own in my house. Would any of these be fine since I bought the product?
B) Are there any images that are considered public domain such as the medical cross or united states flag that I can type into Google image search and use a without problem? Or is each image a slightly different copy I would have to have permission to use?
C) What images can I use from a Google image search or general Google search? Do I have to find a way to purchase whatever I see or is anything not for sale part of a "public domain" that anyone can use?
D) Is it ok to use images that do not directly generate revenue such as a random icon on the website near the menu items?
I very much appreciate any or all answers you can provide. Thank you!
