The images in  the database come from many different sources and it was not possible to add all the different copyright conditions for every image (we have over 7000 plants). We have therefore protected the original copyright holders by using a stricter license than some images need. You may be able to find some of these images with a less strict license on the internet, for example Wikipedia Commons The images on the website are licensed under a Creative Commons License. http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/3.0/.  You are free to copy, distribute, display, and perform the work under the following conditions: Attribution — You must give the original author credit, Non-Commercial — You may not use this work for commercial purposes,  and No Derivative Works — You may not alter, transform, or build upon this work.
