Hi Laurel,

first of all, thanks for sharing the message! Very much appreciated.
I can see your problem with this and thanks for pointing that out. All the
photos/documentation/videos etc. Europeana produces will be made available
under an open license. See for example
http://www.flickr.com/photos/europeanaimages2
But you are right, everybody needs te be consistent. I have flagged this
with the Europeana Creative blog editor.

Kind regards,

Joris
