Caption/Credit/Citation
Like the rule changes above states - Exhibits and Websites now require Credits.
You can't look at examples from winning projects from last year because the rule wasn't in place.
Credits are brief notations about where you got the image/quotation/video/map, etc.
Note: You can easily add a credit on Weebly by choosing the "Caption" option in editing mode (Yes . . . that is confusing; I would use a new Title or Text box for the actual caption).
Don't obsess over this: Just give enough brief information so that someone could find the complete citation in the bibliography/quote, etc.
Here is the example they give in the rules.

Note that the credit is just a really brief notation of where you got the image.
The caption is your interpretation and description of the image.
The citation is what goes in the bibliography.
