Online Checker

CCStamp is also a Creative Commons Stamp checker. Since CCStamp is based on EXIF metadata embedded in images, all EXIF viewers can also be convenient checking tools. There are a lot of example, e.g. Flickr's EXIF info viewer and EXIF viewer add-on for Firefox (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/exif-viewer/).

For Flickr, you can upload a photo containing Creative Commons Stamp to your account. You can go to photo page, select "Action" and then "View Exif Info". Creative Commons License description is shown in that page.

CCStamp v1.0 - Creative Commons Stamper & Checker

CCStamp enables creator to add Creative Commons Stamps on images for sharing with community. Rather than just pasting HTML code on the image's page, CCStamp writes Creative Commons Stamp directly on the binary of image itself. We believe that Creative Commons Stamp is the best way to make others use your work properly.

Since CCStamp is using "User Comment" field of EXIF metadata, someone who gets your images from somewhere can easily read that comment field from any imaging software or online tools. CCStamp can be also a checker which can view the license of images if stamp exists. Anyone can give credits to creator by using license description.
