Linking to themoviedb.org pages

I received a TMDb commercial api a couple of months ago. Thank you! I found the php apis particularly easy to use. I have prepared an entertainment puzzle e-book with links back to the appropriate TMDb and IMDB web pages for an actor (e.g. http://www.themoviedb.org/person/192 for Morgan Freeman) and/or movie (e.g. http://www.themoviedb.org/movie/33 for Unforgiven). Is this correct usage for providing links to your actor and movie webpages? Other than giving TMDb attribution (on the title page of my e-book) for use of the api in putting together my e-book, is there anything else I need to do with TMDb before publishing this e-book? Should I also include a small TMDb logo on my title page or not?

Hi ricklev,
Yes, using the ids the way you are to build the URL is perfect.
Nope, as long as you have attribution you're good to go!
Thanks.
