This news item applies only to members whom hold artist accounts.It's time to publicly announce the little feature that has been added upon request to the area for artists:
Creative Commons Licenses!
By default, your uploaded works are already under the license agreement of The Mod Archive for redistribution purposes, but this does not assist with identifying potential candidates for third party use. So, by attributing a Creative Commons (or alternative) license to your material, you will be able to indicate to third parties
(such as game developers, students etc... basically anyone who's browsing your stuff) that they can make use of your material, in accordance to the license that you select.
You will find the license settings under your Artist sub-menu
My Modules.
For regular visitors to The Mod Archive, an additional item on the individual module information pages have been added that indicates the license associated with the module.
Enjoy!
