Hi Platonides,
in Instagram you don't have the possibility of declaring a CC license
(as in FB, if I'm not wrong)
but you all answered my real question:
I wondered if a pic done with the Instagram app (and often already
published on the website)
was able to be licensed in CC.
It is :-)
Let me put it stronger: the tools used to edit a creation will NOT
affect its license.
It does not matter if a text was composed in Microsoft Word, notepad or
vi, a picture edited in Instagram, Photoshop ir GIMP, the license is
always the author's choice.
I am neither familiar with Instagram from not using it, but it is handy
if the platform provides some metadata and APIs, so the import is easy.
For example we used custom scripts for flickr import and they were able
to mass import images, preserving monument IDs and license, as they were
provided in metadata (tags).
