Avatars+and+Pictures



__attribution:__ Attribute and contribute are related words. They both have to do with giving. Attribution is giving credit to the person who created what you are using. You would need to cite your source. __commercial__: This is not talking about an advertisement on t.v. It is talking about business-- buying and selling. When you are doing something commercially, it is normally for profit. __Creative Commons License__: This means that the creator is willing to let others use the creation without charging them. However, there are some small requirements. Each picture will have different requirements. __public domain__: The picture, music, or other created is not owned by any one person. It belongs to everyone. Sometimes this is because the item is very old and the owner's rights have expired without being renewed. __Royalty__: If you or anyone creates something, it belongs to you. You can give people the right to use it by requiring them to pay you. When a royalty is charged, you are paying to get to use something. __Royalty free__: You don't have to pay anything to use the created item. You still will probably have to provide attribution though. Another Explanation of all of this from BTFA Image Resources: []

 * Creative Commons Search Engine which searches Flickr Creative Commons images (All of these will be photographs.)



__**"Harvesting" and Organizing Pictures**__ I'm using the term "harvesting" because you will be looking for pictures that you can pick, save, and use. As you save them, you will need to keep up with the information required for attribution. I try to save all the pictures for each project in a folder. For example, if I were creating a book trailer for the book //Heist Society// by Ally Carter, I would create a folder called Heist Society. That folder would be in another folder called Book Trailers.

When you find a picture you want to use and are allowed to use,right click on the picture and **save picture as** and add the picture to your folder. Next, open PowerPoint and create a new slide. Paste the picture on the slide. Resize it to make it smaller by going to the picture corners and pushing in. Go back to the picture on the web and right click again. This time click on **copy image location** and then paste that url onto your PowerPoint slide. Next, open Citation Machine and fill in the answers while you have access to the original picture. Create the citation and then paste it on your PowerPoint slide.

Last and much later, at the end of your project, you will add your citations as needed. If you are creating a video using MovieMaker, Photo Story 3, Animoto or some other web 2.0 application, you can add the PowerPoint slides as pictures (by saving them as jpegs instead of as a presentation) to your project.

This seems like a lot to do, especially if you have just been harvesting pictures and using them however you wanted without citing your sources. However, it will get faster for you with practice. Also, the ethical thing to do is to give credit where credit is due and required.
