What is this page?

This is a fake Flickr page, designed to demonstrate the iCents payment tool technology.

We will demonstrate how Flickr users could pay and earn money on Flickr using iCents.

This is a second example of how iCents technology can be used on Flickr (see the first Flickr example here).  iCents is a very flexible Ajax payment tool, so there are several different ways to use it. This demo is just one of dozens of possibilities.

Please click the "Next" button below.

We are not connected or affiliated with Flickr or the content producers in this web page. This demo page uses copyrighted material under the fair use doctrine. The photos in the page are in fact licensed by the Creative Commons Attribution License. If you are here by mistake, please find the real page here.

Explanation:

Flickr allows users to upload photos that can be viewed and downloaded by other people. Users retain copyright, but can choose to license their photos under the Creative Commons licenses listed on this Flickr page . The following text is taken from the Creative Commons FAQ :

Can I still make money from work I make available under Creative Commons?

Absolutely. Firstly, because our licenses are non-exclusive (...) ; you can also enter into other revenue-generating licenses in relation to your work. One of our central goals is to encourage people to experiment with new ways to promote and market their work.

People who want to copy or adapt your work, "primarily for monetary compensation or financial gain" must get your separate permission first.

Thus, it is possible to double or triple-license a photo. For example, you can license a photo under a free Creative Commons license that doesn't permit commercial use, and also under a paid iCents license that permits commercial use, conveniently suggested by the Flickr page.

If a photo is licensed with a Creative Commons license and you do not want to use it commercially, then you do not need to contact the author to obtain a permission. In this case you can use the photo right away and you are bound by the license terms.

The same thing happens with the paid licenses on this page: you read the license, and acquire it simply by paying. There is no need to contact the author or sign any papers.

It is important to point out that Flickr would not impose any licenses on authors, but rather let the authors choose to license their works with paid licenses or free licenses, as an extra option. In other words, Flickr would allow users to monetize their photos and keep a commission whenever someone buys a license on the Flickr website.

How do I test it?

1) Go to the first photo, the "Banana Flower".

Note that the author gives you 3 different licenses to choose from. The first one is a Creative Commons Attribution-NonComercial license, which means that you can use the work for free, but not for commercial purposes.

Pretend that you want to use this photo in a book about flowers. Since a book is for commercial purposes, you cannot use this Creative Commons license. Therefore, select the third license: "iCents Paid-Attribution-ShareAlike." You will be shown the main terms of this license, and it does allow for commercial use.

2) Roll the mouse over the "Buy License now" button. You will see that its price appears just like in this paid link.

3) When you click the "Buy License now" button, a small Payment Window will appear so that  you can pay.

Note: the first time you pay for content with iCents, you will have to sign in with the payment system you like using. Please click here to learn how to do it, in case you haven't signed in already.

4) Click PAY in the Payment Window, to acquire the license.

Write down the code you receive. It is your proof of payment. You can print this proof-code somewhere in the book to prove that you have earned the right to use the photo.

Note: we will not go into much detail here, but iCents keeps a record that allows the author to check the validity of the proof-code at any time (Flickr could also keep this record).

Conclusion

In addition of letting users choose one of the regular Creative Commons Licenses, Flickr could also allow users to choose a paid license.

Note that today, out of the some 73 million licensed photos on Flickr, only some 18 million (25%) can be used commercially. By allowing for paid licenses, this number could be improved drastically, and Flickr would earn a commission in the process.

Also note that, although iCents will be suggesting some paid licenses, Flickr could also provide its own license suggestions. Ideally, Creative Commons could create some paid licenses too, in the future. Creative Commons already provides some support for this through its CCPlus concept  . There is also a video about CCPlus  and a downloadable PDF about CCPlus  .
