Creative Commons

I read up on Creative Commons.  Here is how they describe themselves on their website, "Creative Commons is a non-profit that offers an alternative to full copyright."

There are different options available.  Here is the basic info about the types:

1.)  Attribution - You let others copy, distribute, display, and perform your copyrighted work - and derivative works based upon it - but only if they give you credit.

2.)  Noncommerical - You let others copy, distribute, display, and perform your work - and derivative works based upon it - but for noncommercial purposes only.

3.)  No Derivative Works - You let others copy, distribute, display, and perform only verbatim copies of your work, not derivative works based upon it.

4.)  Share Alike - You allow others to distribute derivative works only under a license identical to the license that governs your work.
