Re: Contributing works and Creative Commons Licensing
Mark, difficult to make hard and fast rules about this sort of thing.
One thing I have never done though is use a creative commons licence. I fairly frequently licence nature groups, local councils etc in the UK use my images for specified uses on a non-exlusive basis and often do not charge in this circumstance if it really is an educational and non money making project. I do often ask for a copy of the output though.
It can get muddier though with a big project with lots of funding where it\'s obvious people are getting paid for their contribution to the project, I would then expect to get paid but normally have been offered an up front fee without having to negotiate.
Where a project is obviously commercially based but the people do not expect to pay for the photos (ie do it for the exposure) I do not then let them use my photos.
So overall I just judge each case on it\'s merits but like you I think try to avoid being taken for a ride.
