Creative Commons Australia have created a number of factsheets. This is an A3 poster flowchart to help people decide which Creative Commons licence (if any) is appropriate for what they want to do.
Start at the green question box and, following the arrows that correspond with your answer, make your way through the pink remixing and blue commercial questions until you reach a purple licence box. That will be the right licence for you. For the full details of each of the licences, see the link under the box.
