The source says that their images “can be freely used on other web sites or any media for any purposes”. Our copyright tag says that anyone can “make derivative and commercial works”. One may argue that they allow commercial use, but it is in my opinion unreasonable to claim based upon that statement that they allow the creation and distribution of derivative works.

:"''For any purposes''" is not very open to interpretation, IMO. But, I'd be happy to create a new template specially for usage in images like this one, as is done at the Wikimedia Commons (http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Template:Vector-Images.com). --[[User:Eddie Ortiz Nieves|Eddie Ortiz Nieves]] 18:48, 27 October 2007 (CDT)

Copyright status

The source says that their images “can be freely used on other web sites or any media for any purposes”. Our copyright tag says that anyone can “make derivative and commercial works”. One may argue that they allow commercial use, but it is in my opinion unreasonable to claim based upon that statement that they allow the creation and distribution of derivative works. The image needs a new license tag. --Kjetil Ree 18:38, 27 October 2007 (CDT)

"For any purposes" is not very open to interpretation, IMO. But, I'd be happy to create a new template specially for usage in images like this one, as is done at the Wikimedia Commons (http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Template:Vector-Images.com). --Eddie Ortiz Nieves 18:48, 27 October 2007 (CDT)
