Almost all of the images on this site were sourced from flickr and were licensed under the Creative Commons-licensed content for commercial use, adaptation, modification or building upon at the time of sourcing. The balance of the images were either used with permission or were otherwise licensed to be used for derivative works at the time of sourcing. If you are intending to re-use images from this website, please check the licensing of the individual images and do not assume that they are all able to be freely used. Please attribute this site as the source if you use images unmodified from this site - all the images on this site are derivative works. Attribute the original authors if you use the original images.

No copyright infringement is intended by the use of any of the photos on this site. If you are the author of one of the photos, or the photo is of you, or you find an image offensive, or want any other modifications made like the image removed or the attribution changed, just contact the site owner directly. Some images that appear to be otherwise uncredited are credited here.

However, you might be wondering why all the images are Creative Commons, Public Domain or used with permission, and the text of the site is not.

The answer is simple - this site took a long time to put together, finding all the photos and writing the text to go with them. Its not like it was generated with a dictionary parser and a Flickr-spidering bot, the entire site was painstakingly assembled by hand over several years. The copyright is simply protection from someone taking a screenscraper to the entire site and duplicating it verbatim. Think I'm paranoid? Of course I am - I've seen entire copies of Wikipedia duplicated on other websites. So PLEASE DO NOT MIRROR THE ENTIRE SITE.
