If I saw a suitable image from other source in the internet, are we allow to put that image into our webpage. Is there any duplication or copyright issue. If the answer is "yes"
Would it be okay to copy a Pinterest image as they are supposedly royalty free and there for all usage?

The images on Pinterest aren't royalty free, there are a few articles about it but this one is worth a read.
The reference to Pinterest is further down the article. http://bit.ly/1xcJPD8
Try Canva.com and photopin.com both great! And photopin is free-Canva has amazing pics that are customizable with text for $1 each, but some are free
The site I use for free photos is FreeDigitalPhotos.net. They have a small print that you can download for free. Some if not all need an acknowledgement of the originator of the photo and the fdp website but that is all.
Hi guys, t really appreciate all your feedback and recommendation. Thank you very much. That is very helpful you all. Cheers.
Hi nodo, Yes in fact it is highly recommended you use relevant images. a few sites worth mentioning are:
http://commons.wikimedia.org/
http://www.freeimages.com/
http://pixabay.com/
Hope this helps.
here is a sight I use pixabay free pics and you can upload any pics you have to help the site out
As Loes says, you can't. But try sxc.hu and wikimedia for free, royalty-free images. If you would like to use an image from another site you could contact the site's owner and ask their permission to use it, and then put a credit in the image caption saying where you got the image from.
No you can't, most images have copyright.
Here you have a list of sites, you have to read the terms of service before use any picture. Free Images, free photo's, free cliparts, free pictures
