Post removed by original uploader due to licensing concerns...

What's the license of the photo used in the wallpaper?

I'm not certain which licenses are allowed, but the other wallpapers seem to have either CC BY-SA 2.5 or CC BY-SA 4.0.
..: Zucca :..

Code: Select all

init=/sbin/openrc-init
-systemd -logind -elogind seatd
I am NaN! I am a man!

I have no idea about the photo's license. I just googled up for "gentoo penguin" and looked for the image results, and I instantly fell in love with the result of the base image.
This is the source for the base image I used: https://www.wallpaperflare.com/gentoo-p ... aper-botdm
Based on the signature it has, its from SuperStock, so no idea, what licensing they use. If you have any tools to uncover the licensing, that would be good.

In the original picture is the note “SuperStock” ... this is a site that sells pictures ... so it could be that the uploader has already committed an infringement of copyrights. What is written directly under the image should also be noted: "This image is for personal desktop wallpaper use only".

I wouldn't pass the image on; if I were you, I would even delete it again and only use it privately.

Ah I see, well that's just too bad then :/ In this case feel free to remove this thread, I edited my OP by removing the content. I also submitted a removal request from postimage.

edit: ok, all source is taken down by the team. Admins - feel free to close or remove this thread, to prevent confusion.
