I would like to use images I find on Google for my tafe assignments and I'm not shore if the copyright laws on these images would get me in trouble they are only for assignments they would most likely not be posted online just being viewed by my teacher's and me and maybe some class mate's... What would I need to do to avoid breaching any copyright laws when doing this?

Hi, Afro_Samurai132!

If you list the source of the image somewhere around it, or in a listing at the end of the assignment, you should be fine. However, is there the possibility that any of them might be posted online by you, please? I ask that because you wrote "would most likely not" in your post above.

Thanks!

Well I might be posting them online in the future but atm no and I won't be claming any of the work as my own unless it is

If you give credit to the originators of the images, you should be fine, especially if you follow the guidelines on the site to which I posted a link.

Did you read the information that can be found via clicking on the link that I provided, please?
