Question About License Rights: Downloaded Graphics

Hey, everyone. I just discovered a site at all-free-download.com where I can get a TON of beautiful vector graphics for (as the name implies, FREE). The creators of some images allow unrestricted free access - just use or modify them as you wish. But here's my question...

How would you interpret this license stipulation? Non-commercial, learning and reference use only.

Am I right to assume that I can use these on my website headers, on pages, etc. as they are (or modified) so long as I am not reselling it as part of a graphics images package?

Or does this mean I can use the images to "play with" in learning how to create images in, say Illustrator or Photoshop ... but I should not use them at all on my website.

Here is an example link so you can see the license terms:


Web Banners Vector banner - Free vector for free download

Let me say that my website will be commercial in nature - i.e., I will be selling a product or service of some type. But not graphic images or clipart, etc.

Can someone with a background or knowledge of image downloading clear this up for me? I looked for it on the all-free-download.com site but couldn't find anything to explain it.

Thanks,

Ina

    You can learn and play with them, or you can put them on a private (personal) website that does not engage in making money.

    You can not use them on your website if it is a commercial website - which yours is.

    Don't attempt to use them on your site, without approaching the creators/owners to get written permission. They may not allow it, but if they do, you might have to pay a fee for this.

    Just my thoughts,

    Jeff.
