Remix Wiki

This post was on my blog last week but mysteriously dissappeared.  Hmmm... Open source-hating hackers?


The acutal Wiki will be linked to our homepage, but here's the open source wiki:

Explanation of what is Public Domain:

Everything online is not considered public domain. Simply going to google.images and grabbing a photo offline does not mean you can use it. In fact, since everything online is considered publish, its essencely the same as making a copy of "Where the Red Fern Grows" and saying you wrote it yourself.

Only a very small portion of things online can be used without payment and permission, things that have been specifically stated by the creator as being public domain.

List of Public Domain sites:

openclipart.com -- For art and clip art

freesound.org -- For b-roll music tracks and sound effects

any of the clipart that comes with Microsoft office -- For photos and clip art
