Thank you for these suggestions. We will definitely consider adding links to the license files. Also, we are very much limited to our twitter account for communication but will surely set up something on our site very soon.

You’re gonna “consider” complying with the law?

  Sorry for the wrong use of words there. As mentioned in the earlier comment, use of cc licensed image in our site can be considered under fair use. We will still insert the license going forward as it makes it more simpler and straightforward. Do check out the link below to see how it works along with a CC license. Also, we would definitely get more legal advice on this going forward. Thanks for understanding. https://creativecommonsusa.org/index.php/ufaqs/what-is-the-difference-between-fair-use-and-cc/#:~:text=Fair%20use%20a%20provision%20of,could%20qualify%20as%20fair%20use.&text=This%20is%20a%20fundamental%20principle%20of%20CC%20licensing https://creativecommonsusa.org/index.php/ufaqs/what-is-the-d....

    > use of cc licensed image in our site can be considered under fair use This is 100% incorrect and not what fair use means, ask a lawyer. > We will still insert the license going forward as it makes it more simpler and straightforward. It's also legally required, and for many licenses (most CC licenses) you not only need to somehow include the license but also attribution. I know very well how CC works, and if you would please read the link you yourself posted, you will understand that the way you are using these images clearly does not fall under fair use, as a compilation/library of anything whether that's images or songs or movies or whatever is not "news reporting, teaching, [or] parody" -- what these examples all have in common is that you're creating a derivative work ON TOP of the original work, which is why it's "fair use".
