Question on Zazzle

I am trying to focus a bit more on Zazzle and I'd like to learn more about it. When we are creating an article here, is it alright to use a Zazzle image in our thumbnail if we use that same image in the article? This particular image is one that someone else has created. I don't want to violate any copyright laws. 

I have used it and haven't had any problems. If it's wrong, nobody's told me. I think it would work the same way as Amazon pages. When we write sales articles, we usually use the item as a thumbnail because it's being sold. If this is the wrong school of thought, I'm sure more informed people will let us know :)

I have used one today. I have seen others using, so I am thinking it is ok to use. But it is always good if we can confirm.

Thanks, I just don't want to step on anyone's toes. I am using Zazzle products in my next article, and it would look so much better in the thumbnail that what I have available.

I can't imagine any Zazzle artist objecting to free publicity and links to their work.If you are in doubt you can always contact the specific artist and ask. 

I guess I could do that Digby. I just want to err on the side of caution. 

I do not know the correct answer to that either and would like an "official" confirmation that we can.  I also have the same question about images of products we are selling with Viglink with link in text but the link goes to the photo of the article.  Can someone "in charge" answer us both?  Thanks
