Hi

I think we would prefer that you don't use the top one you call Calligra.JPG. 
Two reasons 1) Your version stills says beta.  2) the icons are about to be 
change, so we would appreciate the old icons are not shown too much.

And the Words one is old and not used on our side either similar reasons: it 
shows an application that doesn't look like that at all anymore. So please 
fetch a new one

As for the others I'm not sure but give that 2 out of 2 I checked were not 
good representatives I would advice you to please check our website again for 
updated images.

As for general permission I don't think we have a problem, as long as you are 
fair and refer back to our site. After all news sites do the same thing.

btw I get a authorization page when trying to access the link you gave.
