Easy attribution for images
I’m at an EDNA seminar at the moment and just learnt about a quick, easy way to give attribution to images from the keynote speaker Frankie Forsyth. Visit this website which allows you to search for creative commons images. It also gives you the attribution which you need to include with the image on your blog. You may include it with the photo or add it under the photo.

Steps to follow:
- Search for photo by putting in a tag eg sumo or Tasmania or fishing
- Click on photo you want to use
- Click on “edit image in-house”
- Click on “Add attribution” if you want it included with the photo - see my picture on the right
- Right click and “save picture as”
- Follow normal instructions to add images to your blog
Be careful, though, when adding the attribution to the photo. What has gone wrong with mine?
Thank you Miss W, I always wondered how to do this and now I know. With concerns over copyright etc it is essential we learn these skills. Cheers.

Hi Miss W
Thanks for sharing this wonderful site. I have worked out that if you change the image to medium the attribution is not cropped. What I was unable to do was have the attribution by itsself. How did you do that ?
Thanks again

Thanks for sharing this tool, this will be VERY helpful for my students!
Miss S.
thanks for the comment
Glad I could help you with attribution of images.
@Gina, when I wanted the attribution under the photo I just copied the attribution part and added it separately from the photo.
