The wording on the page has been updated to read:<br>
<br>
"Unless otherwise noted, these characters are free for personal<br>
non-commercial use. You may not repost these characters to other sites<br>
for distribution. If you have any questions, contact us! We have<br>
released our Barack Obama and George W Bush characters into the public<br>
domain, which means they are free from copyright and can be used for<br>
any use."<br>
<br>
Let us know if there are any issues with this.<br>
