I fully support that we should accept images under all free licenses, using the aggregation clause of the GNU FDL. (Clause 7.)
This requires defining a free license, however:

Don't the GFDL and GNU GPL require attribution?
-- Does permitting only verbatim redistribution make the license non-free? Many people (including myself) would argue so.
I would say so.
