The publisher wants to put the credits in the caption to the screenshot. Their standard line is

"Author, Title. City: Publisher, copyright, year. Reprinted by permission of the publisher. All rights reserved."

What would be an elegant way of doing something similar for a CC licence? I've thought of something like this, but it doesn't really include the licence terms:

"Figure 2: Photos tagged with "train" at Flickr.com. Photographs taken by Jakob Rask, Kris, Phillip Capper, Z Rahen, José Cuerva, David Bleasdale, Art Vandelay and Johndan Johnson-Eilola. Flickr.com, accessed 3 May 2005."

How about adding "Some rights reserved"? :-)

If you want to go the extra mile, add a CC button somewhere on the article page that goes to the CC.

If you want to go two extra miles, release your own article under a CC license that suits your work. :-)

Just some thoughts.

Cheers,
Daniel.
