Using anyone else's images on your website is a breach of copyright unless:

1. The images being used are licensed for such usage under a creative commons or other such licence (be aware many such license prohibit commercial usage)

2. You have explicit permission from the owner of the image to use them.

3. You are covered by fair use (e.g.: a news story about a website could display an image of that website and be covered by fair use)

4. You are given permission by an affiliate program which has licensed the use of images for affiliate use.

Unless you have permission or are covered by fair use then using someone else's images on your site is a breach of copyright.
