Hi everyone.
Is it necessary to provide attribution and license text URL after every use of CC image? We can make a page 'Copyrights' on wikilovesmonuments.org where every thing will be attributed. I mean the banner stuff, website stuff, etc. Anyway, we'd have to link to this page in the banner or what...
That would indeed solve the problem. A note stating the license of the image shown on the previous page would be ok IMHO. *But* we are linking to 35 different websites. So it is actually easier to change the image (with which we also solve the oppose from the author).

I agree. The spirit of the WLM-exception seems to me that you do not need to attach any licensing information at all to the picture when using related to WLM.
However, for the sake of correctness I've asked her for a more explicit statement at http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Lusitana#WLM_logo_license
