Copyright
If I was searching for an image to post on a webpage the majority of the time I would have to cite it. The way I would cite it is: I would usually place an endnote at the bottom of the webpage with all the other sources. There are other ways I can do this too though; I can also place the citiation under the picture itself. There are also times that I do not have to cite it, if it is on a stock exchange website, then I would not have to site it because the pictures are already in the public domain. That is another time that citiation is not needed is when the copyright on something has expired and is in the public domain.

You should always cite the source of your pictures or information, regardless of if you are going to publish the work or not. If you are going to publish, you have to get permission from the creator of the work.
Remember that if you get photos from a free website like Stock.EXCHNG you don’t have to worry about copyrights. Also, Creative Commons provides an alternative to traditional copyrights, with the “some rights reserved” copyright.
