Sourcing images
- 1. Sourcing Images from the Web “KITTEN 013” by John via Flickr CC BY 2.0
- 2. When might I need images that I find from the web to use? ● For Social Media Posts ● For Blog Posts ● On Websites ● On Print Material
- 3. Examples
- 4. Creative Commons “Creative Commons is a nonprofit organization that works to increase the amount of creativity (cultural, educational, and scientific content) available in “the commons” — the body of work that is available to the public for free and legal sharing, use, repurposing, and remixing.”
- 6. Wikimedia commons is another great place to find images to use on the web. WikiMedia Commons
- 7. WikiMedia Commons The license information is next to the title of the image. Just click it.
- 8. Scroll down to find out licensing info for a specific image. WikiMedia Commons
- 9. Flickr is a great place to search for images. You just have to make sure that you are searching images “Creative Commons Only” because there are a lot of images on Flickr with No Rights Reserved. Flickr
- 10. OK… I’ve found a Flickr image now what. Click “Some Rights Reserved” to view the image license
- 11. This is an example of a Creative Commons attribution license.
- 12. Image Licenses - Commercial 1. Attribution CC BY: This license lets you distribute, remix, tweak, and build up an image and even use it commercially - as long as you credit the author of the original image you are using. 2. Attribution-ShareAlike CC BY -SA This license is similar to the one above, however the image that you create must also be licensed with the same license, so others can use your derivative in the future, even commercially. 3. Attribution-NoDeriv CC BY -ND This license allows you to use an image but you cannot build upon or alter the image at all, and you need to attribute the original author.
- 13. Image Licenses- NonCommercial 4. Attribution-Non Commercial CC BY -NC This license allows you to remix, tweak, and build upon the original image but you must attribute the author and you creation must be non-commercial. 5. Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike CC BY -NC-SA This license only allows you to use an image non-commercially, and you must license your creation under identical terms for others to use non commercially. 6. Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs CC BY -NC-ND This license is the most limiting. It only allows you to use an image you find non commercially, and you may not change or alter any part of it, and you also must attribute the original author.
- 14. OK i get it, I have to attribute. How do i do that? For Facebook posts, either putting an attribution in the text that goes along with the image (caption) or actually on the image is best. Tip: Make the font a little transparent so it isn’t distracting from the overall image.
- 15. Ideal Attributions: “Image Title” by Author is licensed under CC BY 2.0 “Image Title” by Author is licensed under CC BY 2.0 / Cropped from original *Link to image, author profile, and license:* *Note changes if any were made:* *If you made a derivative work:* The work “New Title” is a derivative of “Image Title” by Author used under CC BY. “New Title” is licensed under under CC BY by [Your Name]
- 16. OK i get it, I have to attribute. How do i do that? In blog posts, usually you can just have the image attribution in a caption below or part of the image.
- 17. Public Domain “When a work is in the public domain, it is free for use by anyone for any purpose without restriction under copyright law. Public domain is the purest form of open/free, since no one owns or controls the material in any way (source).”
- 18. Public Domain Occasionally online, you might run into some images that are actually in the public domain. These are the best to use because they are copyright free.
- 19. Examples (Using Public Domain Images)
- 20. Sometimes organizations may want to use images where they do not need to attribute the author. In those cases, it is best to use stock photos from paid or free websites. What about when I need an image but I can’t source / attribute it?
- 25. Conclusion Understand CC licenses, use images appropriately, attribute the authors, and contribute media to the Creative Commons community if you can!
Editor's Notes
- When you use Creative Commons images, you need to add a full attribution link. When you use an image from one of your partner organizations, you can sometimes get approval from them on using a shorter attribution like the example top left.

- http://search.creativecommons.org/ Is where you should start when looking for images. It lists all the places that make it easy to figure out with images you are allowed to use. You simply type in your search term, then click the button of which site you’d like to conduct your search on. I’ve had the most luck with Flickr and Wikimedia Commons.
- When searching on WikiMedia commons, make sure you click the checkbox for “commons”
- The licensing information is usually right next to the image title. If you click it, it will open up a new page that displays the Creative Commons license.
- Sometimes WikiMedia commons image results look like this. If you scroll down the page, you can see the licensing information, and find the link to the Creative Commons license page. Above the licensing information is also the name of the image author and a link to their profile. You will need all this information when composing your image attribution.

- “Freeimages was launched in February 2001 as an alternative for expensive stock photography. The idea was to create a site where creative people could exchange their photos for inspiration or work. The site has evolved into the massive community you see today — there are over 2,500,000 registered users and around 400,000 photos online. “ http://www.freeimages.com/help/1
