1. You need permission from the owner.
2. Know, I don't no. I do no, that to have knowledge of something is spelled "know" and not no, you know? No? It's copyrighted, there's your answer. Technically no, you know?
3. no you can't. That's why it is copyrighted.
4. I am sure you can, many people do it, so if you do its not like your going to have the police knocking at your door the next day. dont worrie about it
5. Technically no. But do you honestly think some studio is going to sue you? Most likely (if anything) they'd request that you take it down. Chances are, you'd never get caught.
6. Myspace tells you not to use copyrighted material, including images. I don't think they will ever find out unless someone else reports you.
7. you can!no one really cares as long as you have a pic. unless there super petty and report you! if you add a contest site or layout site made by random people they use pic. of famous people so you will be okay!
8. I would I mean seriously It's not like saying I took this picture. And they don't have addresses or anything like that so go ahead do it.
9. If they are real serious then no. If they are not then you can put it up, but on the safe side give them credit. Like mention who the picture is copyrighted to. As long as your not using the photo for profit then I dont see what the problem is.
