If you have a blog or site that post news about gadgets and we say Mac's. What can you do to get pictures to show? Can you copy images from the "company's" site or from other sites and link back to them and say that the image is from that site?
Got a tip for us?

How to use images?

You can do this, but a lot of sites will protect from "hotlinking", thus rendering your linked image useless.
Code:
<img src="http://www.link.to/image.jpg" />
If you are really using apple for this:
http://www.apple.com/pr/products/
that should get you started.

I dont mean that you should take them, that is wrong.
But if it is okay to use "product" images and give credits to the original site of the image? Like many sites that post about apple and rumors have same image of the product. Do they work together, or get the images from same person?
I am just curious how it works.
Well there's a number of ways to go about it. Generally there isn't a set way to do this, but the professional and/or considerate will ask before using someone else's image on their own site, or at least state that the image comes from another site.
For Apple, as the links above show, has setup images for people to use in press type situations since they don't want to have to reply to everyone that wants to use a product image. This varies from company to company though.
