I agree. Would be great to file as a blueprint

Here's another minor niggle with remixes: sometimes a single image is
really a remix of more than one source image, and I don't know of any
way to mark it that way currently.  For example, this image:
http://www.openclipart.org/detail/58231

Is marked as a remix of the still life, but really it also includes
the paper-pad, pencil, and graphite texture from this image:
http://www.openclipart.org/detail/26321

That one itself is a remix of three different items: the bird here:
http://www.openclipart.org/detail/25849
and the notebook and pencil (neither of which I can currently find; I
suspect either they or their keywords never made it into cchost).  All
three were contributed to OCAL by other artists.  I don't know how to
mark the bird sketch image as being a remix of all three of those, nor
do I know how to mark the still-life sketch as being a remix of both
the still life and the bird sketch.

It's not a HUGE deal, since everything we're remixing is PD anyway, so
attribution is technically not required for anything.  But it would be
nice to have the *capability* of listing all the source images,
especially in cases where they are all already in the OCAL.
Especially since the word is "remix", not just "derived"; generally
the word "mix" implies more than one source.
