Don't be. Publishing poor quality scans of one side of individual counters is nowhere near a violation of copyright.

Posting PDF originals, the same digital files that the countersheet supplier receives, would certainly be.

Posting hi-res scans of a finished sheet, front and back, would probably be.

Posting assy-quality scans of sheets, as BGG now requires, is unproven but probably safe because no one is going to be able to recreate anything rivaling a real sheet with those.

Individual counters? Especially when some are as bad as this:
