I suppose if you want to use them on a profit site you have to pay money.

Of course, this is true of any copyrighted work.  Plagerism is illegal in every country I can think of off the top of my head, and that's all this is emphasizing.

However, technically, you DO have to show the license if you use them... but not the copyright.  Odd license :P.

Yes it seems to have similarities with GPL. I understand the license that you have to give credit to the author and also show a link to the license. According to common netiquette the credits and requested links should not be hidden somewhere on the website but be well visible there where the graphics are used. Of course there are always people who try to foul out such licenses by hiding the requested informations somewhere on their website...
