I'm not so sure about that licensing.  Here's what the acutal license
text includes:

"* SELLING AND REDISTRIBUTION OF THE IMAGE (INDIVIDUALLY OR ALONG WITH
OTHER IMAGES) IS STRICTLY FORBIDDEN! DO NOT SHARE THE IMAGE WITH
OTHERS!"

This clause makes the images non-usable for Fedora, unless the author
specifically makes them available to us under a truly free license.
There are other clauses in the license for these images that are
problems too, such as requiring the recipient to restrict how they are
used.  Unfortunately "royalty-free" is not automatically free enough.
