Thank you, Sue. I don’t blog myself (I marvel how edtech bloggers find the time during the school year), but I do teach two computer classes, and this information serves as a primer for me in CC. Talking about the different licenses with my kiddos will be a great addition of our Internet unit.

If you want to feel comfortable with legal concerns, use a max width of 150 pixels for your images when it comes to screencaps. There’s some caselaw here in the US where the courts ruled that one site’s usage of thumbnails of 150 pixels and under was acceptable under fair use. We had a rather lengthy (and very nasty actually since Matt and Automattic really don’t understand copyright) discussion of this on the wp.com support forums a long while back.

@Techie Kids, most of us use screenshots of websites and don’t ask permission. While technically you should ask for permission most companies are more than happy that you are linking to their site.

Generally people will only ask for permission from a web site when they are writing a book.

Hi Sue,
What about Screenshots of a website that I’d like my students to visit? I’m thinking about showing the logo or title in my blog post and linking directly to the site I want them to use.
Thanks!
