- In the end reference list, reference the source of the image and who is responsible for that source.
- In the citation in-text, use the standard template for referring to the end reference.
- If provided in the source, also acknowledge the original author of the image in text.

Notes
If there is no title, provide one with a short description in its stead.
If no direct author is provided of the source from which the image came, use the authority most directly responsible for the source. For example, the author of the page, or if not available, a company responsible for the website.
The format of the end-reference depends on the type of source from which the image is taken.
