Recognizing licensed work

It is possible to search for CC-licensed work in a variety of ways, but sometimes, you just want to be able to recognize a CC-licensed work when you see it while you're out and about on the internet.

There are a few usual places where you are likely to spot the CC license icon or text on a website or blog.

For example, the footer is quite common...

And sometimes the sidebar...

Sometimes the CC icon is missing, but there is text that says "license"...

These icons are usually links, so if you cannot tell by looking which license the creator is using, you can click on the icon to get to the license itself.
