  I don't understand how these can be "no known copyright restrictions" and yet also under a non-commercial licence and licenced only for viewing through flickr. That's not Commons at all!

• stephen Wouldn't you like to know said:

  Oh yes the dear progressives will go down in history as "the saviors of humanity" and "champions of the common man"...what a load of manipulative psycho-babble. Woodrow Wilson locked away thousands of political protestors who dissented against WW1. And don't forget about dear FDR who packed the Supreme Court with judges to push his Socialist "New Deal". And LBJ pretty much destroyed the inner city with the Great Society disaster. Yeah...the Progressives are a bunch of frickin' saints!

  Hi, thanks for your comments. Just to clarify on the copyright point. Copyright in ‘No known copyright restrictions’ refers to the rights of the photographer. In the case of all the images we have put on Flickr as far as we have been able to establish copyright has either expired or belongs to LSE. Licensing is different, this applies to permission to reproduce images. We have placed these images under a ‘non-commercial licence’ which means that they can be used freely for personal and academic use. Charges only apply if someone wanted to use the images for commercial publications when we would have to supply higher resolution images. This is standard practice for commercial publications. Flickr Commons has a code of practice dictating what can be displayed on the site and LSE adheres to this in all respects.
