just as a side note - whether or not there is any copyright notice is irrelevant - by default (at least in the US) EVERYTHING is automatically copyrighted, whether or not the owner goes through the "official" copyright process. If I take a picture and post it to the web, it is copyrighted - same goes for any blogs I write or anything else along those lines.

That doesnt mean you cant use it - as koala mentioned there are free "stock" pictures all over the place - you just need to make sure you have the owners permission.
