Writing CC (The Creative Commons logo) in HTML

Answer 1

As far as I know, there is no character for this, so you'll have to use a graphic.

There are some nice ones here. By the way, on this page, there's also a logo font you could use in HTML, but this won't show correctly for other users that don't have the font installed.

Answer 2

HTML defines a standard entity: ©

But be careful to test different browsers, because not all standard HTML entities are supported by all browsers.

You can also simply say it in text like, "Copyright 2008 YourNameHere."

You don't have to use the copyright symbol to make your copyright legitimate.

Answer 3

As @schnaader says, I don't think there's a HTML entity code for this, but perhaps you could take a look here

Answer 4

Just for the record, you don't need it to be an HTML entity, in theory you could use any unicode character, encoded as a character entity like &#nnnn; (decimal) or &#xhhhh; (hex).

So if there was a Creative Commons logo in unicode, you might be able to use it. But although there certainly are plenty of symbols, there isn't one for Creative Commons AFAIK.

Looks like it has been at least discussed in the unicode forums, so who knows what will happen in the future.

But for now a graphic is almost certainly the best way to go here.
