Are images from the internet allowed in member pages articles?

Just from an integrity perspective....so as not to misrepresent yourself.

Yeah, I agree with that. I don't think it's required to provide attributions for public domain material, but I think that one should still do so whenever possible. I checked the Creative Commons license requirements and all versions of the license require attribution, but some only allow noncommercial use, some require that adaptations be released under the same license, and some don't allow adaptations.

So, one should either use their own images, use public domain images with an attribution, or use images with a free license consistent with the terms of the license.

You can use images from iStock or something like that. Just be sure to give them some credit.

Those might require payment to use. I suggested Wikimedia since all the images there must be either public domain or released under a free license.

I don't think Adobe Stock or Istock requires payment but Shutterstock definitely does.

adobe stock has specific restrictions on how/how many times you can use an image. Full use requires payment.
