Thing 4: Photo Sharing and Editing

I don't do a lot of picture taking, but I do work with images as part of projects. I am always trying to get kids to realize that pictures are part of intellectual property and that they need to only use pictures they are legally allowed to. That's where I run into a wall - teachers want them to find specific pictures, and sometimes, those pictures just don't exist legally. I've had some success with Google's advanced search and wikimedia commons, but this really needs to be a school-wide dialogue that hasn't happened yet. On the flip side, I love Aviary, and use it to take screenshots all the time. I even have it as an extension in my Firefox browser.
