Is it legal to use pictures off Google Images on Facebook pages?
I am talking about pages that represent a certain brand or company.
Is it legal to use pictures found on Google Images to post on the company's Facebook page?

Also, can you edit the pictures?

It depends on the website you pulled it off. Google does not own those pictures. Google is a search engine that looks around on the internet and plucks it out for you. Some website may allow you to use the pictures and many won't.

If you are using the pictures to represent a brand or company, you are HIGHLY recommended to buy them of stock photo websites like http://www.shutterstock.com/

There are even free stock photo websites if you look around, here are a few i found: http://www.stockfreeimages.com/

Oh and if you took it off the stock photo websites i mentioned, you should have FULL permission to edit and do whatever you want with it.
