May I ask...about flags, take the Egyptian national flag...you wanna tell me that everyone drew the same one? My guess is that they all took it from WIkipedia. Is that legit?  I'm asking for real, cause if it is, I want a piece of the action.

That's slightly differenct, as the flag on Wikipedia is a CC0 image in the public domain. Although one thing to note, maybe not with that image, but with anything tagged as CC0 or being in the public domain... that doesn't necessarily mean it is. For example, somebody other than the author of the work may have uploaded it. Or... I could trace that dudes bulls and tag them as CC0 or public domain, so I'm certifying that anybody can do whatever they want with them, both non-commercially and commercialy (with no need for attribution), but as I've breached the copyright of somebody else then I don't have permission to do that.

I mean, you never know... the Egyptian government might have registered the copyright of the flag, it's still current, and they actively pursue people who use it. I'm sure we would have heard if that was the case, but it's just an example.

So yeah, it's a bit of a minefield... so if you are planning to use any CC0 images, always try and double check they actually are... so you don't get your account shut down further down the line!
