IANAL but your comments seem to be right on the nail.

However, leaving aside the question of legality, there is still the
question of politeness. Surely, it is only good etiquette to ask the
owner of the image copyright for permission before publishing - this
goes for copylefted content as well. IME as long as the content is not
to be used in a for-profit context, you will generally get permission -
usually with a proviso or two such as acknowledging original ownership etc.

I don't know about the rest of the world but, as an Englishman, manners
matter to me.
