Note added, 18 May. Pedro Belatro has added a comment to this post which I am also pasting-in here, for information:

Maybe it would be good to remind readers that the Copyright Clearance Center handles copyright licensing for Nature [and Nature Publishing Group] titles.

For bloggers: I had a quick look and for Nature, the licensing of up to three pictures for a non-commercial website is still free:

“This reuse request is free of charge although you are required to obtain a license through Rightslink and comply with the license terms and conditions. You will not be charged for this order.”

Thank you, Pedro.
