I know software folks have had teeny issues with CC licenses, but for photos, I've found them to be useful, familiar, and clear…one thing to keep in mind is that CC licenses are more of a handshake than something legally binding.

They will all be AeroAstro images I've taken over the years. I'd like to explore some language options for user guidelines/restrictions. Rather than create something from scratch, I'd prefer to find some examples of existing language/text I could use with modification. Anyone know of some text I should examine? Thanks!
