Celebrity pictures…are they allowed?

Posted on February 28th, 2010 by admin in celebrity pictures | 2 Comments »

I see a lot of people uploading celebrity morphs, or putting their faces on a celebrity, or just adding celebrity pictures. Are we allowed to do this on Facebook? I don’t want to upload a pic and get my account suspended…

I’m guessing it is okay, as long as you are not impersonating the celebrity, nor taking a profit (as in selling your photoshops, etc). Technically, you shouldn’t because those pictures are copyrighted (someone else took them), but since it is about celebrities and lots of people are doing it just for fun and not actually trying to sell them, I don’t think Facebook makes a huge deal out of it. I was thinking of adding pics, but I’m not going to just in case.
