[cc-community] Not sure does cc apply to a copy or 'original' work

Right, and just to be clear,  the important thing to realize is that you can
never restrict the rights of a work farther by dual (or tri-?) licensing it,
you can only make it more liberal.

So in the case of selling a large resolution version of the work to a user
you can only bind them by a license that would be less restrictive, not a
license that restricts them farther than the original CC license.

CC+ enables creators to notify users that they can secure additional rights
that are still reserved (Commercial rights in the case of a NC licensed
work, or Derivative rights in the case of an ND work).
