 Get everyone. I'm really grateful for the World Wide Web and especially for the people that spend their time putting together open source and in inverted commas free stuff that Anyone can use to publish and communicate online I've decided that every day I'm going to jump on and let you one let you know one thing I'm really grateful for That's online and that I use quite regularly and today I want to talk about creative commons now Creative commons as an organization is a topic for another video. It's a great way of licensing your work if you're into making your products extremely shareable and interactive and Extremely web-friendly the creative commons is a great place to have a look at licensing your product and on YouTube They give you an option of selecting a creative commons license But as I said, that's another topic another video another time Today, I wanted to show you the creative commons search. I use this quite regularly as you can see here You can search for images Audio and video that you can use for commercial purposes and modify adapt and build upon So basically that means many of the images that you can find using this search If you're happy to put an attribution or a credit to the original Work and to the original artist of the image or audio or video that you're using You can use these images in your own projects stick ads on them and make some money online or whatever you're doing You know in print whatever There's as I said, there's options if you just want to use the image outright You can click off the modify adapt or build upon You just want to stick up that image and give it a credit. Well, there you go Um, you can also take the use for commercial purposes check box off and you can use that sort of stuff for your school or uni projects or in Products that you're not making any money from so if you're uploading to YouTube and you're not sticking ads on it Well, then you're within your right to be able to use the images that come under that search So let's have a quick search now I'm going to click on the use for commercial purposes because I like sticking ads on my Videos to see if I can make any money. Not that I've made any money. I don't know if you can say that am I Probably breaking terms of service. I'm gonna have to edit that video Okay, so let's search for I'm wearing a dodgy hat today because my hair's a mess So that's right hat and let's go for wikim wiki media commons This is my favorite place to search just because I like the website and it's it makes Attribution or crediting the work extremely easy. It's got all the information there where you won't find that under Google search so easy And you want to you want to give attribution? That's what makes this system work people are happy for you to use their media if you give attribution because What goes around comes around? So here we go.

There's a crown there So as you can see they've got the source and the description All the information that you need to be able to credit the work appropriately.
