I've been using Flickr since its beginning (almost), and I never knew such a thing existed. My life suddenly became easier. :-)</p> Thanks for this tip.

Makes proper attribution a no-brainer.</p> <p style="margin-left: 2em;">2) If you're a Quicksilver user, you can set up a QS search trigger like this. QS Preferences > Catalog > Custom. Click the plus button near the bottom of the preference screen and choose Web Search List. (Or if you've already got a Web Search List under Custom, highlight it and click the "i" info button.) Hit <strong>+</strong> on the slide-out panel. For the URL, enter http://www.flickr.com/search/?q=***&l=cc&ss=2&ct=0&mt=all&w=all&adv=1. I named mine 'TS Twitter Search' so that typing TS into QS would allow me to hit period, type my query, and hit enter to do the search.</p> A couple resources that streamline (for me at least) the process of using Flickr to find CC-licensed content:
