Are all the images on WPClipart Public Domain?
Almost all… there are a limited number of images on WPClipart which are used under the umbrella of “fair use.” These include any image with a company logo/trademark (ex. company name on a credit card image), or a recognizable product (ex. a specific model of cell phone.) Fair use items are usually small examples of copyrighted works or images that are meant to be used (but not distorted or misrepresented) when referencing the original work and/or product. A pertinent example is use by a company that resells a particular model of cell phones and takes credit card orders. Using a couple of the aforementioned “fair use” items on a flier or web page would be perfectly appropriate. The biggest difference between Fair Use and PD images is that you should not try to make a derivative work out of a Fair Use item.
