VERY VERY VERY IMPORTANT !!!
the copyright credit for the original image
most of the time the location of the original and it's web address is just fine
but we NEED to know WHERE and from WHOM the original is from .

I notice this isn't done in quite a few addons.

So if one was making an add-on based on a work of fiction, one would need to acknowledge the creator of said work? For example, I'm working on Anne McCaffrey's Pern (from the Dragonriders of Pern series). Wanting to avoid a lawsuit, yet wanting to share my work with others, how do I work around this?
