Would it be illegal....

[Watch Me Sink]

for me to get images from archive.org's wayback machine and post them on my website?
I would credit the source in it.

You could do that, there is no way of telling they are from Archive.org if you didn't state they were. I have seen forums posting images from there before. If its images from your created content, then yes, use it.

Well they aren't my images.
Like if I were to post the google image from 2000 on my site.

That should be fine. People post Google logos on their site all the time, it's not uncommon. There's nothing to worry about ~smile~

I don't think it matters, you're free to use them I believe. Loads of people use images from there, besides you're acually taking the screen shots.

If you're very conserned, read this: http://www.archive.org/about/terms.php

If they aren't your images then it is illegal, even if you credit the source.

Whether or not the author will care is of course a different matter.
