> I have checked with the Communications Department and understood the correct licensing for the Flickr photos is Attribution – share alike. People are free to use our Flickr photos and they just need to attribute ICANN when they do. So, in our account’s case they would need to attribute ICANN’s At-large Community if they use a photo from the At-Large Flickr account. Including if they make any changes to the photo – they still need to attribute the photo to At-Large.

I have checked with my predecessors and none of them could recall the login. I have downloaded all the photos from there and transferred to the new account. Unfortunately, without being able to log in I cannot change the license there.

> The request is find out why COMM  has made this decision rather than a Creative Commons Share Alike licence.   You have options in FLICKR.
