You need an attorney's advice, not some yahoo's advice on a board.

If the photos you used have a copyright, it is illegal. (so pretty much anything on flickr or taken by a real photographer). If you took the photos yourself, or found them in creative commons (no copyright) then it is legal.

No.

No. Not without the copyright owner's permission.

No. it's not legal.

If you don't own the rights to the image, then you are breaching the copyright, and you could be sued.

Nearly all images you find on the internet are copyright.
