what about photo's? Inserting the image by posting in the url like in this forum, is that illegal?

at the very least, they may be subject to IP infringement. I am not a law gaduate or student, but I think you copying and pasting someone else's copy unto your site.

No that's not illegal. You can contact my people and they will confirm it.

Obviously there's nothing wrong if you decided to give credit to the original author. But however, it's best that you first ask the permission whether they might okay if you use the content. However, I don't see the point doing it because copied articles will not contribute towards site popularity.

Even if you give credit, it is still completely illegal to use someone's content without their permission. The law is very clear in this regard.

It's simply illegal ! Why not copying from them after permission or posting a link to the original source ? What is the problem on doing that ?

If you have permission, then of course you can. But, you have to get permission first, not after as suggested by the OP
