CC got rid of their non-attribution v1.0 licences in 2004, so since then there has been three options for people wanting to release art without requiring attribution:

- CC-By but include an extra note allowing people to omit attribution. This is hassle and may not be legally ok.

- CC0. This comes with other affordances you may not want

- Use some slightly inappropriate code licence like MIT

But MIT requires attribution as well:

> The above copyright notice and this permission notice shall be included in all copies or substantial portions of the Software.

IANAL but my understanding is that the legal interpretation of that is that the copyright and permission notice doesn't (need to) include the name of the copyright holder.
