This information would be helpful, for the Scratch Programming Wiki - check it out!

For the wiki, I'm wondering, for the pictures of the scratch website, the scratch program, and scratch blocks, what licensing should I use? There's a couple options:

-I don't know the license.
-I took this photo myself.
-I got this from Wikipedia or another Wikimedia project.
-This is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike License.
-This is licensed under another free license.
-This is in the public domain.
-This will be used in a way that qualifies as fair use under US Law.
-This is copyrighted, but use is permitted by the copyright holder.

Which should be used for most images related to scratch? Should there be something else for the main logo, or the scratch cat?

Thanks,
Lucario621

It doesn't really matter. I doubt the FBI are going to see it.

No one's really going to care what you do with it. Screenshots of the site/program/blocks are fine, especially if it's in the scratch wiki.

It is.
Fair use applies when someone uses media, but is not using it for their own gain, but only for showing, making the image perfectly legal.

That's what most wikis use.
