On the SRD website, there are pictures from the Monster Manual. Are we allowed to have them here?

Short answer: not likely.

Long answer: They are probably in violation of Fair Use. Monster manual pictures are intellectual property of WotC, sold, and part of D&D. Fair use (in the case of our wiki) only allows picture use so long as there is no way they directly compete with the owner of the picture. Using a picture of a Red Dragon, for instance, would undoubtedly compete with WotC.
