Ok, added content filter on the license for "No known copyright restrictions", which also happens to be part of The Commons on Flickr.

fix checked in under the DRUPAL-6--1 and will await next release.

Can we make it selectable from the list of choices?

I'm not sure, but I think the selection you are defaulting to will only find photos with no license. I think for now a simple dropdown on the MLT settings page for each of those then adding that to the req should be fine to at least get in there.

I set it as the default since it was the only one that did not require an attribute of the work.
For the ones that did not prohibit commercial use there was this:
"Attribution. You must attribute the work in the manner specified by the author or licensor (but not in any way that suggests that they endorse you or your use of the work)."

We could add drop down, but I'm not sure how we would add attributes for owners of the images, unless it got added as part of the title or alt tag on the image. But that still might not cover "manner specified by the author".

Could the attribution be handled via theming? Do we call a theme function for each image?
