Can I use the default picture on my theme in an ad I am planning on Facebook?

  No problem. Just a copyright question. Thanks for your answer.

  Howdy,

  Could you please send me a direct link to the image you’re referring to?

  Hi, Chris. That is a direct link. It’s a photo of some old books, and it came with the (free) theme. I just want to know if I can use it elsewhere to advertise my new blog. If not, let me know and I’ll just find a similar image in the public domain. Thanks.

  Howdy,

  You can use that image since it’s GPL.
