To find content you can share, use and remix online look materials which have been stamped with 'Creative Commons' licenses. There are options for this within a lot of online media sites (like Flickr or YouTube) but you may need to dig to find the search filter. It is much easier to go to the Creative Commons search hub where you can search all the main media sites from one place: http://search.creativecommons.org/.
Then you can paste or insert CC license buttons (which are little thumbnail images) to indicate what kind of resource you're using or remixing. The CC license buttons can be downloaded from the CC website.
It gives different file-type options, for whether you're producing a print or digital publication. So, if I'm putting together a Powerpoint presentation, I insert the 'png' version (using Insert>Picture) and re-size (as necessary) within the slide. The 'Bring to Front' and 'Send to Back' (accessible from your right-click) help you to layer the original image and the buttons.
