Title:
  Provide required attribution for photos

Status in LoCo Team Directory:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  The photos that are included on the Team pages are either from users
  or groups of users and as such the photos are being made available
  under a variety of licenses/no license.

  Many of the photos are under an Creative Commons license, and all CC
  licenses require attribution when the photo is reused. The use of the
  photos both on the Team page and in the lightbox do not include
  attribution information.

  A solution would be to include the attribution information included
  underneath each photo on the Team page and in the lightbox view. It
  should include:

  <a href="link-to-the-photo-information-url">Photo Title</a> by <a href
  ="link-to-the-user's-account">User Account Name</a> - <a href="link-
  to-specific-CC-license">Short Name of CC License</a>

  eg, for one of my photos it would be:
  <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/grggrssmr/5587639212";>Jammers</a> by <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/grggrssmr/";>Greg Grossmeier</a> - <a href="http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/2.0/";>CC BY-SA</a>

  [Relatedly: For photos not available under a CC license, it is
  questionable if we have the right to put those photos in the
  lightbox/on the Team page in the first place. It could be argued that
  they (the user) gave implicit permission by linking their
  flickr/picasa/pixie id to the Team or sharing their photo to a flickr
  group. This isn't a show stopper issue right now, just something to
  think about.]
