Then you can never share this, because it would be redistribution of
copyright material :-\

Mmm ... given that the originals are *pictures*, would a textual
representation of the words represent a *copy* ?

Maybe not a copy, but "derivative work"? ;-)
I bet they use a very restrictive license. Can I be bothered reading it? /me *shrughs*

Obviously showing the image as a search result would be showing a
copy; but you could provide a link to a public archive instead ... or
just transclude it on the page.
