Add license information for the media content

Open carolinan opened this issue 4 years ago • 1 comments

Add information about license and source for the media content. This was recently requested in the #themereview WordPress Slack channel and is needed when theme authors intend to use the images in screenshots etc.

If information can not be found consider replacing the images.
