Creative+Rights+MT


 * Copy assignment 1 below. Create a wiki page called Creative Rights //initials//. Paste the questions on your wiki page. Then complete the assignment.**
 * In your own words:**
 * 1) Compare the following terms: **creative commons, commons, copyright.**
 * 2) Contrast the terms.
 * 3) Explain one way to find images that have "**commons**" rights.
 * 4) Which assignments have used **commons** images? Explain why.
 * 5) Explain in detail one way to find images that have "**creative common**" rights.
 * 6) Provide a specific example of the use of at least one **copyright** image in an assignment for this class. What were the limitations in the use of the images?


 * 1. Compare: These terms are alike because they both have some information on copyright. Creative Commons and Commons both find or allow photos with "Copyright". They all help with licensing work and/or finding loopholes.**


 * 2. Contrast: Even though they all have copyright, they are different. Creative Commons is an "organization" (to use their words) that allows users to share their own work by licensing it, too. Commons is when you can find photos that are so old that they are beyond their copyright date. Copyright is a concept that gives people the right to protect their own work by making it exclusive and no one can change it.**


 * 3. One way to find images that have "**commons**" rights is to look for images that state they have "No known copyright restrictions". There are plenty of website such as Flickr that have these kinds of images.**


 * 4. Assignments that have used** commons **images are cropping and manipulation. This is because we were changing the image and it isn't legal to mess with a copyrighted picture.**


 * 5. One way to find images that have "**creative commons**" rights is by looking for photos that have the tag "Some Rights Reserved". This is usually found in an obvious spot in**
 * your work. Sometimes the rights are attribution, share alike, no derivative works, noncommercial, noncommercial- share alike, or noncommercial- no derivative works.**


 * 6. One copyrighted image I used in an assignment is for the captions page. The picture I used was Kyla Ross at the 2012 London Olympics at the team finals during her uneven bar routine. I was able to use this picture although it is copyrighted because I am not using it to make money or advertising purposes and I'm not changing it in anyway. I only added a caption that is easy to remove.**
