It is free to repost. Every image on Google is for public use. The ones that are copyrighted can't be copied by a search engine or any one else without special software. It is the image owner's responsibility to use the right copyright software when posting an image online. The board's rules are a little outdated for posting pictures.

Again, any image on the web can be copied, but it doesn't invalidate its copyright protection.

I don't think the board's rules are outdated; they protect the owners of the board from getting sued for copyright infringement because a user posted a copyrighted image.
