Whenever I want to use some pictures or information I have to cite the source I get the picture from. If I want to use this information in a long term it means I have time to ask for permission to the creator, But If I need to use it immediately I don't have to obtain the permission. Under the fair use clause: students,teachers and reporters can use information they come about spontaneously without citing for a period of time. The most common ways to cite sources are, at the bottom of the page and using a small caption under the picture; giving credit to the original photographer. I will not need to cite if it is in the public domain, which happens when I get the photos from a free website.

You should always cite the source of your pictures or information, regardless of if you are going to publish the work or not. If you are going to publish, you have to get permission from the creator of the work.
Remember that if you get photos from a free website like Stock.EXCHNG you don’t have to worry about copyrights. Also, Creative Commons provides an alternative to traditional copyrights, with the “some rights reserved” copyright.
