[edit] Liscencing
This work is a copyrighted publicity photograph. It is believed that the use of some such photographs to illustrate:
- the person(s), product, event, or subject in question
- where the image is unrepeatable, i.e. a free image could not be created to replace it
- on the English-language Wikipedia, hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation,
qualifies as fair use under United States copyright law.
Other use of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, might be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Fair use and Wikipedia:Publicity photos.
Additionally, the copyright holder may have granted permission for use in works such as Wikipedia. However, if they have, this permission likely does not fall under a free license. As well, commercial third-party reusers of this image should consider whether their use is in violation of the subject's publicity rights, if the photograph is of a person.
To the uploader: This tag should only be used for images of a person, product, or event that is known to have come from a press kit or similar source, for the purpose of reuse by the media. Please add a detailed fair use rationale as described on Wikipedia:Image description page, as well as the source of the image, the photographer, and copyright information. Additionally, if the copyright holder has granted permission, please provide further details as to the terms.
Please note that our policy usually considers fair use images of living people that merely show what they look like to be replaceable by free-licensed images and unsuitable for the project. If this is not the case for this image, a rationale should be provided proving that the image provides information well beyond simple identification or showing that this image is exceptionally difficult to replace by a free-licensed equivalent.

This image is used under a fair use rationale, but may fail Wikipedia's first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a free image that provides substantially the same information might reasonably be found or created. See the talk page for details.
If this image is determined to be replaceable within one week from (13 December 2006) (20 December), the image may be deleted by any administrator. Do not remove this tag. Tagger: If this image has, at the time of tagging, a rationale explaining why it is irreplaceable, please do not forget to explain on the talk page why you think that rationale is not valid. Tags applied in contravention of this requirement may be removed; if a rationale is added after the tagging, the normal process for disputing a tag should be followed. After adding this tag, please notify the uploader with |

It is disputed whether or not this image violates our first fair use criterion. See the talk page for details.

[edit] Fair use for Unwritten Law
This image, Unwritten_Law_group_photo.jpg, is being linked here; though the picture is likely subject to copyright I (Seaworldpunk 04:29, 13 December 2006 (UTC)) feel it is covered by the U.S. fair use laws because it is a promotional photo of a band. Although the image comes from the band's official website there is no copyright information given to accompany it (the original image can be viewed here). A suitable replacement image that is known to be free of copyright cannot reasonably be found or created.
