I've seen referece to Davelandweb's website, which turns out to be a treasure trove of photos. Can I scrap with them as long as I credit his site? Who has an answer?  |

This is always a good idea. Photos are inherently protected under copyright laws, which is why a lot of photographers and sites watermark the images that they use. As long as you're using them for your own personal, private use and not trying to sell them or make money, there is usually no problem is using others images.
I have a few of the Tiki room in my smugmug albums.

Feel free to use any of them if you want, just let me know if you've used them.
