If the image is labeled as Creative Commons you will have the option to download the photo. I hold down the Control key (Command on a Mac) to open that image in a new tab so I do not lose my search results page. Click on Imageįinding an image you like, click on the image to isolate it from the other images. If there was an image you really wanted to use, contact the content owner and obtain their permission in writing. Of course all the really cool images went away. Check the checkbox to “Only search within Creative Commons – licensed content.” Click “Search.” Scroll down on the options page and the last set of options is Creative Commons. Once you search you will notice a link under the search box that says “Advanced Search.” In Flickr type your keyword into the search box. Find Imagesįlickr is not the only place to find Creative Commons images, but it is a source for them. Feel free to use the images, just remember to give credit. C lick here to view my Flickr photostream.

I have my Flickr account setting set up to default my images to Creative Commons. In other words, give credit! You must filter your search in order to isolate images you are able to utilize for your presentations. Creative Commons is a license that content owners can place on their works that gives people permission to utilize the content… with attribution.

Most images on Flickr, and on the internet, are under copyright. In putting together a keynote presentation, I try to be mindful of copyright when choosing my images.
