gapan is absolutely correct. [...] Salix would be immediately responsible the moment it published a violating picture etc....
Nope, he's not and neither are you.
He could have been right, but ...
There seems to be some misunderstanding here.
This here wouldn't be legally correct:

..., BUT even if one would do it, nobody would bother. The simple reason:
1. One has to discover it at all first
2. One has to WARN you to remove it second
3. If you ignore the warning, they must warn you again
4. After all, one can go to the court and make the claim - in foreign country
However, that's anyway out of discussion - we're trying to get the original works legally.
I posted all that here together with words 'nice to play with' as a part of an answer to gapan's
"I don't know. I guess the city one is OK. Maybe the windmills too, but with a different background color than yellow?"
I just didn't write that explicitly down, as I expected that you'll understand that anyway.
That was also the reason why I posted 640x320 Px 'miniatures'.
We're also just discussing and collecting ideas.
Such reworked art belongs to it.
Now, if somebody would really want to make a legal claim against Salix or Open Source, they could do it right now.
Salix comes without the codecs preinstalled, BUT it offers an easy way to install them.
Salix is also using Xfce with primitive sort of Mac-Dock.
Long story short - you wouldn't get fined at the end, but you'll have to prove '1001' detail - if somebody would really care for a claim against Salix.

Think FLOSS and FOSS GPL, WTFPL etc... If it doesn't have the four freedoms or at least say explicitly that you are free to use, modify, redistribute etc...
You're free to use it, if you like it - I'm the one deciding on the licensing model.
P.S.
Why the things are sized and positioned as they are, has a good reason.

P.P.S.
Why this thread 'burns'??
