How do I know if I can put a picture in my game or not?

For any image you find online, you must either contact the host/owner of the image or read the license agreement. It really depends on the site you're using.

If you want to be sure you can use an image, try a Creative Commons Image Search

Need more information, what picture? Does someone own the rights to the picture?

If it's a picture you created from scratch, yes
If it's a picture you've purchased the rights to, yes
If it's a picture you grabbed from a google search, probably not
If it's a picture you scanned from a printed piece, no
