this came up recently for me
do i want a text link? how big? where placed?
one question that arises:
would you consider the link to your content as sufficient "attribution"
or is this a separate link to your site?

For attribution on the web a link back is usually considered appropriate.
In print media, often its a byline of some kind.

It's the lightnet thing to do. :)
That aproach devaluates the whole concept of Creative Commons. The goal
with CC is (among other things) to have a shared set of licenses, making
it *easy* for people to see exactly what they can and cannot do with your
content. If everyone went and wrote up a usage page saying "this is CC
licensed, but it's CC licensed under this interpretation I've written
below" we would be back to square one.
Use a CC license if you agree with what the license says. If not don't say
"CC licensed... in my interpretation", just write up guidelines without
mentioning Creative Commons.
If you look at what is listed for Attribution it says:
You must attribute the work in the manner specified by the author or
licensor.
http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/2.5/
But the problem is, almost no author/licensor specify anything in this
regard. So how are you supposed to do what they ask? That's why I
outlined the attribution part.
As for the commercial, bit. Won't it ultimately be up to a court to
decide what something like "commercial use" is? I was attempting to
define what I consider "commercial use" so that you would know if I had
a problem with what you planned to do.
Even the CC folks don't seem to be sure what NonCommercial means:
"So the topic of what constitutes a "noncommercial use" under those
Creative Commons licenses that contain the NonCommercial license option
has been a perennial source of debate over the years"
http://creativecommons.org/weblog/entry/5752
I think I worded it badly when I wrote: "you might as well outline what
you think it means" in this case. I was not trying to redefine what a CC
license is, only clarify what *I* think it means.
