I am working on the appropriate solution for a hypothetical problem. Let’s say you are searching for images for your own use and you locate an appropriate image within Flickr. The page claims the image is available under Creative Commons and the license says “attribution”.
What is the appropriate attribution? The owner of the image is Grabe (yes, that’s me), but one does not necessarily have to use a real name and Grabe is vague anyway.
The image came from the page – http://flickr.com/photos/grabe/1397669571/ – and providing this information allows me to demonstrate I am not claiming the image is mine. Still – I have not identified the provider.
If I have a Flickr account myself, there is a way to send a flickr email to another flickr person. Perhaps, the appropriate solution is to send an email and ask grabe just what type of attribution he/she would like.
Beats me.
