Creative Commons

I found a photo of this butterfly on Flickr. The Creative Commons licence is: Attribution-Share Alike 2.0 Generic licence which means I can:
  • Share — to copy, distribute and transmit the work
  • Remix — to adapt the work

On the condition that I attribute the work in the manner specified by the author or licensor (but not in any way that suggests that they endorse you or your use of the work).

The Creative Commons licence on the Get With it!!! programme is: Attribution-Noncommercial 3.0 New Zealand licence which means I can:

  • Share — to copy, distribute and transmit the work
  • Remix — to adapt the work

On the condition that I:

  • attribute the work in the manner specified by the author or licensor (but not in any way that suggests that they endorse you or your use of the work).
  • Do not use this work for commercial purposes.

Really useful to know how to find if there is a licence on an image I may want to use. Tended not to as I was never sure - now I know how to find out.
