Creative Commons Licenses (/thread-4788.html)Creative Commons Licenses - cosmickitty - 08-17-2013
I think this would help out with all the posts asking can I use this for xxxx... sorry if this is already somewhere:
The creative commons website has a nifty feature where you input how you would like your asset used and it pops out your license code.
Sidenote: for a game you can only use:
Creative Commons Attribution
Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike
Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial
Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike
the other license types:
Creative Commons Attribution-NoDerivs
Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs
do not allow for derivatives of work and therefore cannot be used in games.
The license code it outputs doesn't work on this forum, but it's still fairly easy:
[CC by 3.0]

Well, this may not be just for resources, but source code and other material. So... It's a goin' to be stickied to Development Discussion. This is important.

didn't think code went under CC license, thought it kinda had it's own version of it.... I know it can't really work for games there's a seperate license for it.
