However, it's also in keeping with the spirit of Creative Commons licensing.<br /><br />The Creative Commons license covering this blog allows for re-use with attribution, so I thought I'd include attribution even of non-Creative Commons images so that others can go to the original source to get the image (in this case, for example, the photo is cropped). I certainly don't want to imply authorship or ownership of something that's not mine, but I also want to make it easier for others to obtain images to work with.<br /><br />To be honest, it's more about facilitating cooperation and others' creative endeavours than it's a defensive, pre-emptive assertion of my right to use an image.Arthur Schenckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10568299067544221996noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34249799.post-16490731514746242802012-10-23T23:06:08.343+13:002012-10-23T23:06:08.343+13:00Well, mine will post tomorrow.

Virtually all of my graphics that aren't my own, and aren't graphics for the movie or whatever, I get from govt sources. I don't even bother to mention, because it's not copyrightable in the US. Then it occurred to me that YOU ARE IN NEW ZEALAND (I DID know that, really) and that YOUR use may be restricted in a way mine is not. Hmmm...

The reference to Shriver being "little known" was more about how he was viewed in my largely Republican environment. I know that in 1972, I had no idea who he was.Arthur Schenckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10568299067544221996noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34249799.post-6103445564716172842012-10-22T12:21:55.602+13:002012-10-22T12:21:55.602+13:00Nice reflection.

Not only was he a Kennedy in-law, married to Eunice, but he was the first head of the Peace Corps. I was a political junkie by '64, and probably an outlier for my age, but I sure knew who he was.<br /><br />Of course, you were very young in the early '60's...Roger Owen Greenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05298172138307632062noreply@blogger.com
