I respectfully must disagree with the first response you received to this question. Just because you're not packaging it up for outside use does not give you free-reign to use somebody else's work without permission. This is a very complicated subject, but there are some basic principals that must be adhered to. I do recommend either buying a book, doing further online research, or attending a class on this issue. I attended an ASTD sponsored class on this a few years ago at a conference, and it was very eye-opening. Please, in the meantime, be very careful with what you use. You can use quotes of a certain length, but even that has a sub-rule to it that is very important (I apologize that I don't have my book in front of me or I would tell you what that is specifically). Also, when taking graphics from the net, please be sure that you either obtain permission from the source or that there is a statement published online with the graphic that states its for "commercial use." Print that off and file it away. You may need it someday.

important - please note that I listed three things that all need to be true and said I am NOT a lawyer; nor did I say "as long as you're not ... you have free-reign... etc." Additionally, I said that it was a general comment. Please do not put words in my mouth. Thank you.

LoveLearning, there really was no need to become so defensive or upset with my response. I wasn't putting "words in your mouth." I just said I RESPECTFULLY (something you weren't to me) disagreed with your response, and I proceeded to express what I knew on the topic. I'm not a lawyer either, and if the poster wants detailed information, he/she should seek the advice of one. However, I have 15 years of experience in this area and have taken a few classes on the topic.... Again, I'm not an expert, but I thought it was worth sharing my opinion.... which I THOUGHT I had the right to do. You had the right to share your opinion also, and I had the right to disagree. Enough said. There was just no need to accuse me of putting words in your mouth and everything else when I was simply trying to respond to the poster.... not to you. I NEVER said that you used the words "free reign" or anything else, did I? Calm down.
