My good friend C-Quel was having trouble with understanding licensing and I figured, well there is nothing like a self perspective on Creative Commons.
So this piece is my selfish guide to Creative Commons, aka What has creative commons ever done for me. Specially designed to tell creators what they can restrict. For more factual and actual information see: [link] |

Ah, in that case NC may not necessarily be desirable for me in most cases. So indeed, my ideal license would be CC-BY-SA for the majority of the drawings I do. ^^
Thank you this is good to know. -v-
Not just derivatives but the copies of original unmodified as well, although be aware that if someone creates a derivative of your NC work, you can't use their work for commercial enrichment, their modifications can only be used for commercial reasons when all contributing parties agree to re-license.
For instance, Ritsuko Sato of ASCII and Hiroshi Seo of Aerialline can not use our translations or edited versions for print distribution without first asking Me, you, Fumihito Yoshida and Hajime Mizuno first. All four of us would need to agree, since all four of us have collaborated to get the end results (no matter which one was used).
See this is a problem, if they had released as CC-BY-SA then they could have used our work in print, no fuss, no mess. Perhaps it's better this way though, perhaps we'll get some money if they do an English print

I usually pick 'Share alike', in the spirit of GPL. ^^

I'm never serious. Seriously.
So I made a note of it on each of them. I wouldn't mind but they don't even allow you to suggest commercial licenses available or any of those flexible things.

It's just a fancy feature to me - when it comes down to it, all that matters is my decision, however I decide to inform people of it. ^^
Of course, I did use to release art as GPL, which is not always equally convenient.

Alright then it's settled,... the future lies in CC-BY-SA! ^.^
