The trading place for images should help that less people copy and paste images without looking for license of them and the registered users can trade some special images among themselves. Also they can rate and organize the uploaded images. | The trading place for images should help that less people copy and paste images without looking for license of them and the registered users can trade some special images among themselves.

We make a distinction between non-registered and registered users, because they have different demands. Non-registered users want to copy and paste easily images without looking to the license. If they can download the image only with watermark, so they have the advantage, that they don't break any law. And also the registered users can profit from it, because their copyright will be seen very fast.<br/> | |||
Registered users can also rate and organize the uploaded images in a special workspace, so that they can find easier, where the image was downloaded. So they see at the first glance, which authors they must be refer, if they mix different pictures with a Creative Commons license. | |||

In this way the idea solves a lot of problems, which we identified during the interviews. On the one hand it solves the problem, that people don't simply copy images and publish them without calling the author and the license, because the people must not search long after the license information. Besides the users have a central place, where they can search after images very easy and fast and we hope, that people deal more with Creative Commons licenses in this way. | |||

The big problem of our solution is, that users do not want to pay credits for pictures without watermark, if they can download it without watermark elsewhere (e.g. flickr).<br/><br/> | |||

Existing solutions in this section (e.g. flickr) haven't got the advantage, that users can download the image with watermark, so that they don't search after the license information. Mostly artists don't edit Image-Metadata-Formats like ITCP and so it is difficult to remember the correct license and the author and our idea solves this problem through watermark or with the workspace area. Also we concentrate us to spread the Creative Commons thought and so the users can trade, but they can't buy with money. For that reason the users can find only images with Creative Commons license in the community. Other existing solutions gives the choice to use CC-license or the normal copyright. | Existing solutions in this section (e.g. flickr) haven't got the advantage, that users can download the image with watermark, so that they don't search after the license information.
