I checked with the website policies of the National Website, and it states that use of its imagery for SCOUTING websites is permissiable. There are very few OFFICIAL BSA websites, as most are for Scouting units (which are not covered by the BSA policies on website design/usage).

Buffalo_Skipper: Be careful when "obtaining" material from a website. If it an OFFICIAL BSA website, then all is well. If not, email the webmaster for permission BEFORE downloading the photo, clipart, etc. (unless it is a universally-accepted bit of Scouting imagery). Website material is covered under copyright laws in the US and you could be on thin ice, legally speaking. Especially if the material is going to be reused for your own website.
