Creative Commons Licenses

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]

I can go into more detail if need be... but I think everything is pretty self explanatory.

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. Winking

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.
