Creative+Rights+SS


 * 1) Creative commons is when you want to share your invention with the world, creative commons opens the creation to the public for all to use. However, Creative Commons is not totally open, it allows the owner to still restrict parts of the creation, while others are fully open.Copyright is when you want your invention to remain restricted, for anyone to spread your creation, they need your permission. Commons is an expired copyright, that allows you to use them freely as if you had no rules on using and copying the creation. So all of these are restrictions on your license to your creation, and give you the freedom to say what and what not your product can be used for.
 * 2) However, there are some major differences in the licenses. Creative Commons allows you to specify what you want in your product to be open, and what needs to be privately owned. Copyright is when you want your product to only be spread with your permission, and other creation of the product without consent from the owner is illegal. Commons is much different and is when the Copyright license is expired and is now open to the public, even though it was once private.
 * 3) You may find an image that has commons rights by going to Flickr.com and searching in the commons area of their website.
 * 4) The assignments Cropping and Layers and Manipulation used commons pictures. We had to use commons photos because we could not change a copyright photo, as it is restricted and permission has to be granted.
 * 5) You can find images that have creative commons rights by searching for photos on ccsearch.org, this website gives us photos that have little to no restrictions but are not the outdated photos as seen in commons.
 * 6) We used a copyright image when we did the captions assignment. We were allowed to do this because even thought they were copyright, we were not changing the photo, but just adding a caption.
