Welcome back! *pokes through your photostream* woo! Aurora bridge FTW! Mind if I snarf a copy of that? Very impressive. Also liked the front quartering shot of Lenin in red in the snow...
Sure, go ahead, just credit me if you use it anywhere.
I don't generally care that much if people use my pictures. I probably should put things back under CC license, but I discovered I'd been snorfed for a few commercial things without attribution, and got irritated (plus several pro photographers told me best to do CC more sparingly).
You can do CC with a noncommercial clause... fr'ex, if you look at my journal/profile you'll see it has a CC-BY-NC-SA license - attribution, non-commercial, Share Alike... Jonathan Coulton tags his stuff BY-NC (no Share Alike; I suppose that's his way of not being pushy) and seems to do well enough....
but, yes, I always try to give credit where credit is due.... thanks.
I /was/ using CC-BY-NC-SA. I got used for a commercial publication, uncredited, and got annoyed. For a while I put my photostream All Rights Reserved and even watermarked everything. I've stopped watermarking again, and may go back to CC-BY-NC-SA.
If so, I'll probably stop uploading the full-res versions of my image (at fairness, in 21 megapixel territory, no one NEEDS the full-res versions of my images) and go to 50% or 'keep within 1280x1280' or something.
