Attribution is not really the issue. Don't use photos that you didn't take yourself, unless you have acquired permission to use them. I am moved to make this point because I have the impression that many people actually think that "giving credit" somehow immunizes them from damages for copyright infringement.

Some readers of this site think it is okay to use google image search, and then do whatever they please with the images they find. Photography copyright is very trivial for a lot of people not into photography. I compare it to China's policy of software copyrights: willful ignorance. Even when it is explained, it is ignored. I can't explain it to them, and I can't understand their stance either. I get frustrated, and have to let it be before it becomes hostile.
