Since you already got in touch with the relevant copyright holders,
could you please clarify which images are currently shipped in
blackbox-themes without source?

I mean:

* some of the images may be source themselves (because they are in the
form that is used in the theme and in the preferred form for making
modifications at the same time): this images are OK (as long as they are
licensed in a DFSG-free manner, of course)

* the other images (if any) are generated from some other form (which is
the preferred form for making modifications, that is to say, is source)

Could you please list the images that fall in the second set, but are
distributed without source?
