The essence of our solution is to find an easier way for professional creatives to find material that is covered by CC-licenses. Our idea is to built an online archive with only CC-licensed stock. Furthermore, a specialized filter-function would provide an easier and faster search. We had research-filters like licenses, themes and colors in mind. An important new function should be a specialized tagging and labeling method for the CC-licenses material. It should be easy, clear and not attract too much attention when in use. Therefore we would like to find a way to hide the labeling of the work, for example by the use of a meta level. | The essence of our solution is to find an easier way for professional creatives to find material that is covered by CC-licenses.

* Finding CC-Licenced content is a very important topic. As well it is a quite broad one – if you review your user research again, is there anything that helps you to focus the topic to a ''certain aspect'' of searching and finding that needs attention? (e.g. is the licence filter of e.g. [https://secure.flickr.com/search/advanced/ Flickr's advanced search] understandable for the users? What about saving files once they are found? You could as well compare "professional" image databases with their open "amateur" counterparts. What is different?) | * Finding CC-Licenced content is a very important topic.

Current solutions are unable to support professional creatives with their work because there is no quick and easy way to filter CC-licensed work. There is nothing such as a fast review. | Current solutions are unable to support professional creatives with their work because there is no quick and easy way to filter CC-licensed work.

Research | |||
* I like the idea to focus on creative professionals, this is an interesting audience. | |||
* how did you screen your research participants, what were the criteria used to define a "creative professional"? | |||
* was find-ability the only issue keeping creatives from using this material? What specifically made findability so difficult? | |||

* This is an interesting idea, but I'm having a hard time imagining how exactly this would work, is it a search engine like google, or an image service like Corbis, or something else? | |||
* how can this improve upon the kinds of CC searches that sites like Flickr have for these creative professionals? | |||
=== Bram Pitoyo's comments (Mozilla) === | |||
Your research unearthed a conundrum. On one hand, most creative professionals like the idea of using CC. On the other, what seems to prevent CC from being adopted widely is the difficulty of finding high quality materials to work with. Whether the lack of quality is real or merely perception, this is a problem to solve. | |||
Your solution was to build an online CC archive. How do you make sure that it’s a place professionals will love to use? How do you solve the ‘CC is low-quality’ mindset? How do you make sure that the quality of your archive stays high, but without stifling creator’s access? | |||
