No. One of the great "urban myths" is that "if it's on the net it must be free". Nothing modern and creative is in the public domain (meaning it's free to use without permission) anymore unless the owner explicitly puts it in the public domain (explicitly as IN WRITING). Assume that 99.999% of the time anything you see on the internet is protected by copyright and if you want to use it, ask permission.
