I think you need to use the RDF output and to include:

<dc:type rdf:resource="http: //purl.org/dc/dcmitype/StillImage" />

like in this example:

I added the "StillImage" bit to CoverBrowser, let's see how that goes.

On the other hand, the Creative Commons organization deprecated the RDF meta data (they told me after I once asked) in favor of constructs like this one:

<div xmlns:cc="http: //creativecommons.org/ns#">Pics can be shared under <a href="http: //creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/" rel="license">CC</a>.</div>

(I added blanks after the "http:" to prevent autolinking.)

Interesting – in fact, site:sketchory.com (where I used above div construct) does work as CC in Google Images. So that is probably one way to do it without RDF meta data then.
