Copyright issues

Hello. I was hoping it was the correct section, but anyways;

I want some money in my custom story. I found this image on a Wikipedia article here and here.

Thing is, can I use these samples to my custom story?
"Veni, vidi, vici."
"I came, I saw, I conquered."

RE: Copyright issues

Wikipedia normally states the copyright license for its images, they also try to aim for images that are free to distribute. Read http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:US-&#3...Fr.270.jpg it says it's Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike 3.0 Unported.

RE: Copyright issues

If you are VERY worried about something's legal status I suggest you get all your pictures from a Creative Commons website. Basically it means that anything under that form of copyright is absolutely free to distribute.

Try here (Take note of that "Please Note" paragraph down in the bottom left just in case):
