    Flickr creative commons best practice

    Hi gang hope you're loving this challenge!! It's just Awesome!! i'm a big fan..

    Anyway,

    Ok, so , the best practice when using creative commons images (flickr) is to credit the author by putting a lens to his page when writting an article.

    But what if i create a video on youtube using those images. Is it ok just to mention them at the end of the video?? (not clickable links) , like: "Photos flickr.com: Mister Monkey, Mister dog, Mister..."

    Im not asking about the legal aspect But just if some of you guys do it like this or know someone who do it like this..? Any ideas?

    (The video may not only go on youtube, so putting the links in the description would be too long)

    Thank you guys

    There is more to Creative Commons than just attribution. Here is an explanation of the various licenses and restrictions.

    As for "Is it ok just to mention them at the end of the video?" the owner of the image is the only person who has the right to make that call. The fact that it is published under "Creative Commons" doesn't remove the owners right to decide what sort of attribution they want.
