Hi, Thank you for your message. I am indeed unaware of the copyrights governing these images. I have therefore removed them from GitHub.
Furthermore, I now only maintain the website and no longer edit the code at all. I hope the Debian package can remain active. Thank you very much for your dedication to keeping the software available to everyone!
