Creative Commons Attribution License Question

Hi,

I realize now how I have confused my initial question. Basically, I wanted to know if a photo covered under the CC Attribution license could be re-package by anyone, and then sold as is? I don't want to restrict the distribution of the content, I just don't know if I want someone else (other than me) selling verbatim copies. I do want someone to be able to make commercial use of the media.

I apologize for my conflicting requests. Currently, I am just attempting to verfiy some important details before I begin distributing some material.

Thanks!!!

Mitch
