Two caveats: 
1) We prefer OSI approved licenses. CC Attribution is not.
   

2) The author specifies, how he likes to be attributed.
   Good, that he can choose a reasonable way.
   Bad, that there is no default, if he did not say anything.

Otherwise, it is a simple, good and very free license.
No further issues.

'Tag in the corner' sounds reasonable, but keep (2) above in mind.

Yes, as always. :-)

        cheers,
