Yellow Yolk: Content in the yolk is covered by clearly defined APA citation examples. See the NSCC APA Guide, By Type page for examples.
Egg White: Content represented in this area are less traditional resources, like images found on websites. Creating a reference is actually simple if you follow the template below.
You need to find four pieces of information:
Author, A. (date). Title of document [Format description]. Insert url address
APA Reference Example - The Egg Image on this page
APA Reference Example - Blog Post
Format
The format description in brackets is used only when the format is something out of the ordinary, and provides information about the type of resource being referenced.
More information about using APA is available on the NSCC APA Guide.

A credit line under a visual is best practice when creating brochures, posters, or web content. Use when you need to give credit to the creator included in works that are not traditional academic papers. The requirement to acknowledge and give credit remains -- the how becomes more flexible. Make sure you include the CC license type for all CC licensed content.
Royalty Free does not mean no cost.
A royalty based fee schedule requires ongoing payment based on the number of times the content is used.
Royalty Free means a single payment (the permission fee) covers multiple use of the image without additional payments. It allows for more than one use of the image for the fee paid.
You pay for the image, but it is free of royalties or ... royalty free.
