Non-free fair use in 3D Canvas[edit]

Though this image is subject to copyright, I feel its use is covered by the U.S. fair use laws because:

1. Amabilis has released no such images into the public domain, and a replacement image could not be created that would adequately provide the same information.
2. It is a low resolution screenshot of a computer program.
3. It does not limit the copyright owner's rights to sell the computer program in any way.
4. The image is being used solely for informative purposes, as it serves to illustrate the form in which the program works.

Licensing[edit]

This is a screenshot of copyrighted computer software, and the copyright for its contents is most likely held by the author(s) or the company that created the software. It is believed that the use of a limited number of low-resolution screenshots: for identification of, and critical commentary on, the software in question, in the absence of a free alternative, 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. Any other uses of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, may be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Non-free content for more information. Fair use //en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:3dcanvas.jpg true
