Using Creative Commons Content for Presentations
Last week as I prepared for one of the sessions I am participating in at Nashville, I decided I wanted to get something fresh for the graphics in our slides. Off I went to Flickr in search of some creative commons licensed photos.
CC-licensed images that allow commercial use are fair game to download and incorporate into your presentations or other visual media. If the license the author chose also allows derivations, you can alter the original work as well. In all cases you are required to acknowledge the author as the originator of the image.
So, here is what we developed from the original photo taken by Todd Klassy:
One of the beautiful things about Flickr is that they make it easy for people to share their photos under this type of license while also making it easy for others to find and use them.
Visit the Creative Commons web site for more information on the license and also be sure to check out the ASAE/Center Annual Meeting group on Flickr.Posted by David Gammel at August 10, 2005 10:56 PM
