It's always a good idea to get permission. I knew a guy that had to pay a fine for an image violation once. You can always go to iStock to get royalty-free images.</p> <p>~ Alexis</p> <p><a href="http://DCincome.com" rel="nofollow">http://DCincome.com</a> </p> http://forum.creativecommons.org/topic/235#post-548 Fri, 20 Nov 2009 02:09:10 +0000 hanktrotter789 548@http://forum.creativecommons.org/ <p>Hi!

For me, there is no problem with using others' image to other promotions. Just make sure that you do not use it directly and it is only a support to one of your main images.</p> <p><a href="http://www.watchgossipgirlonline.tv/" rel="nofollow">http://www.watchgossipgirlonline.tv/</a> </p> http://forum.creativecommons.org/topic/171#post-469 Mon, 05 Oct 2009 10:57:33 +0000 Anonymous 469@http://forum.creativecommons.org/ <p>Can you differentiate a commercial license from a non-commercial license? </p> http://forum.creativecommons.org/topic/171#post-445 Thu, 24 Sep 2009 06:45:26 +0000 anthonyroach654 445@http://forum.creativecommons.org/ <p>Well I agree with you guys. If you don't have any intention to use the photo commercially then it is ok to use it. But if you do, I think you should ask permission to whoever the photo belong, to allow you or authorize you to use the photo commercially, just to be safe.. </p> <p><a href="http://practicebuildingcenter.com" rel="nofollow">http://practicebuildingcenter.com</a> </p> http://forum.creativecommons.org/topic/171#post-440 Tue, 22 Sep 2009 18:50:47 +0000 Game Server 440@http://forum.creativecommons.org/ <p>When we say that a certain photo has a non-commercial license it means that you are prohibited to sell the photo itself. I'm not really sure about this but I think it's okay to use the photo as long as you don't have any intention to use it for commercial purposes. </p> http://forum.creativecommons.org/topic/171#post-428 Fri, 18 Sep 2009 13:19:47 +0000 webworx 428@http://forum.creativecommons.org/ <p>If you are making money out of the blog - it would be classed as commercial use.</p> <p><a href="http://www.businesswebworx.co.uk/business-website-report.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.businesswebworx.co.uk/business-website-report.html</a> </p> http://forum.creativecommons.org/topic/171#post-426 Thu, 17 Sep 2009 01:33:27 +0000 hronstve 426@http://forum.creativecommons.org/ <p>I would like to agree with the facts that was being presented above. There were no problems on using directly the image if you don't use them for some promotions.Asking permission and giving credit to the owner would be the best option for you to do in order to avoid violation on the policies with regards on using someone's property.</p> <p><a href="http://helpwithanxiety.info/" rel="nofollow">http://helpwithanxiety.info/</a> </p> http://forum.creativecommons.org/topic/171#post-413 Fri, 11 Sep 2009 17:08:11 +0000 Tax Relief 413@http://forum.creativecommons.org/ <p>I believe that if you are not using the image on the site and not promoting anything using that image, you will be fine. But if that image links or has any part of promoting anything you are selling, you might have some troubles. </p> http://forum.creativecommons.org/topic/171#post-401 Tue, 01 Sep 2009 20:33:36 +0000 Insurance Leads 401@http://forum.creativecommons.org/ <p>That's true. Don't forget that putting a disclaimer is not enough. Direct permission from the owner is a must and it doesn't hurt to have a written agreement signed by both parties. </p> http://forum.creativecommons.org/topic/171#post-377 Wed, 29 Jul 2009 16:23:44 +0000 Free Flash Arcade 377@http://forum.creativecommons.org/ <p>I agree with osorio. If a photo is licensed then it is considered as private property of the owner and using it would be considered plagiarism. Certain measures should first be taken before posting the photo. This measures include but are not limited to:<br /> 1. Asking permission from the owner<br /> 2. putting a disclaimer<br /> 3. giving credit to the one who licensed it.<br /> I hope I answered your question. </p> http://forum.creativecommons.org/topic/171#post-364 Fri, 17 Jul 2009 07:30:44 +0000 osorio 364@http://forum.creativecommons.org/ <p>I'm not an expert but I think the confusion is whether a non-commercial license is defined in terms of being prohibited to sell or distribute original works for revenue, this is well defined in such an agreement. Since your not directly selling the material then this definition is not violated. </p> <p>As for the placement of ads on the same page I'd look at it like this, if you've written content which is original and the ads are contextually served to that content only (which is the general case) then your not profiting from the photo itself your profiting from the content you've provided to that page.</p> <p>That's probably the best way to look at this type of scenario regarding secondary states of income involving the display of primary work, though this interpretation could be a little fuzzy at times. If you go ahead with this or any future publications involving pictures (I don't know about audio or video streaming though) try to contact the creator of the work and if they are for some reason unreachable</p> <p>I'd place a disclaimer on your website/weblog stating that if any material seen on the site is in violation of any agreement involving the licensing of or similar rights thereof then it will be removed. This way you at least show honest intent regarding the usage of such material. In the long run I think that this situation could be interpreted as being commercial and to be on the safe side I'd outsource 'commercial usage applies' CC agreements. </p> http://forum.creativecommons.org/topic/171#post-336 Tue, 26 May 2009 14:10:35 +0000 hardeeps 336@http://forum.creativecommons.org/ <p>Hi</p> <p>Suppose I have a blog and I use a photo taken by someone else and licensed under one of the non-commerical licenses.</p> <p>I am displaying ads on the blog. </p> <p>Does it constitute a violation? I am not displaying ads on the photo itself. Hence the photo per se is not being used commercially. However the blog, of which the photo is a small part (appears only one some pages not all) - is used commercially.</p> <p>Please advise.</p> <p>Regards<br /> Hardeep </p> http://forum.creativecommons.org/topic/134#post-270 Sat, 14 Feb 2009 21:10:28 +0000 altuzar 270@http://forum.creativecommons.org/ <p>Hi. Maybe a lot of commentaries are "responsability of their authors" and sometimes the Legal Section of the site states that the "Content posted by users are dedicated to the public domain" (that's from Digg).</p> <p>But a lot of times, there's nothing else than the (c) in the footer and that's all. </p> <p>So, what's the copyright status of that "content posted by users" in blogs? Is an answer about that? </p> http://forum.creativecommons.org/topic/123#post-257 Wed, 21 Jan 2009 21:41:14 +0000 WordPump 257@http://forum.creativecommons.org/ <p>I run a blog in which readers can submit their own satirical news stories, which I then publish everyday.</p> <p>I was wondering whether I would be able to ask submitters to release their work under the Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 license, so that I can publish their work and possibly make profits from my blog in the future (through advertising).</p> <p>I'm new to this, so any help would be welcome.</p> <p>Thanks in advance,<br /> Brad </p>
