Can I use someone else’s graphics in my project?
As long as you or your teacher will NOT post it on the Internet:
 
  1.  You must  cite your source to give proper credit
  2.  You must follow the requirements in the box on the right.

Example #1: A picture from a Clip Art site
 You may use this in your project as long as you do not post it back on the Internet.

Example #2: 5 photographs scanned from a fiction book you are reading
If the pictures were created by one illustrator, you may only use 4 of them
