I imagine some of you may have seen that the Wellcome Library announced 
yesterday [1]  that they have made over 100,000 high resolution images of 
manuscripts, paintings, etchings, early photography, and advertisements 
available using a CC-BY license. I was wondering [2] if it is ok to upload 
CC-BY images to the Commons.

This is mostly in theory since the downloads are sitting behind reCAPTCHAs and 
several levels of click throughs — but you never know :-)
