Thing 7

Write a post describing Flickr, and my personal experience searching.  Provide an image to select, download it, cite it, and provide a link to the original.

I enjoy searching through Flickr for images.  However, when I began finding images that I might use they were unable to be downloaded by the original artist.  This is the problem where Creative Commons alleviates.  Besides for the search toolbar, Flick can also narrow the search by selecting a category of Sort, Search, and License.  By changing the License to Creative Commons license I was able to find only images available for downloads, and once I had the search entered I was able to find the images and image size that I wanted to select.  This tool is valuable for teachers because we can find images to incorporate into our lesson plans without violating copyright infringement.
