Creative Commons images and you: a quick guide for image users - 0 views
-
John Pearce on 08 Aug 11"Most of the guides out there for working with Creative Commons content, especially images, are for image makers who want to pick a license for making their own work available. Even the Creative Commons site itself is geared toward Creative Commons license users, and not Creative Commons-licensed content users. So as a small Public Service Announcement, we've put together this brief intro to Creative Commons image usage. This guide is aimed at two types of users: 1) publishers big and small who want a high-level overview of Creative Commons licensing and the issues involved in sorting out what can be used where, and 2) advertisers big and small, who want to make use of Creative Commons-licensed images while staying in the good graces of content makers and end-users.
