The site is definitely a reloading of the BGs from well-known site.
Although some may think it's best for you to name the original site, it's kind of hard to do that when a first time visiter will have no idea where they're from.

It's okay for you to site Bass Novel as the source.

that's such an amazing site * o * !!
Thank you for sharing <3


hmm, when I opened this picture http://bassnovel.com/showsub.php?type=room&id=20656477
I found :

Name : 草原
Description: Materials here are created by generous creators mostly from BASS who are willing to share their creations. If you find this material violating copyright, please tell us!


I guess we can credit the site then ^^;
btw, the "sound" section didn't work with me >.<"

In general, if you have no idea where they're from, you should not use them.

I have seen MANY 'clip art' and 'free art' sites using blatantly stolen commercial graphics (like, scans of book covers and stuff) and claiming that they're free, which leads to people who go to those sites downloading them and saying "But it said it was free!" And the site will just shrug and say "Well, the people whose art we stole should have notified us to take it down!"

It's really not a big deal for free games, but it's not a good habit to get into.

...I don't think its particularly true... some Bgs came from tasogarei and maospace... are they telling us that those sites were from BASS? I dunno but as long as I'm aware, I'd better credit the real sites(which sadly they didn't include) than crediting them personally. While those BGs are indeed free, I'm also pretty sure the creators included in their site to: "Credit the site if you're going to use it".

With respect to crediting an artist, running a reverse image search is probably something worth doing if there's no artist cited.
