Images on Wikia are subject to the copyright restrictions of those images. If an image is on a Wikia webpage, then your browser will necessarily download that in order to display it on your screen.

Editing a Wikia webpage to incude an image or a gallery, you'd need to upload the image to Wikia in order for it to be used on that page; so if you follow whatever copyright restrictions are associated with the intellectual property of the image's contents, then you can do what is allowed on the webpage.

If the image is on Wikia, I assume that it's meant to be used on some page or other on Wikia.
