| Article | |
| Portion used |
The entire front cover. Because the image is a book cover, a form of product packaging, the entire image is needed to identify the product, properly convey the meaning and branding intended, and avoid tarnishing or misrepresenting the image. |
| Low resolution? |
The copy is of sufficient resolution for commentary and identification but lower resolution than the original book cover. Copies made from it will be of inferior quality, unsuitable as artwork on pirate versions or other uses that would compete with the commercial purpose of the original artwork. |
| Purpose of use |
Main infobox. The image is used for identification in the context of critical commentary of the work for which it serves as cover art. It makes a significant contribution to the user's understanding of the article, which could not practically be conveyed by words alone. The image is placed in the infobox at the top of the article discussing the work, to show the primary visual image associated with the work, and to help the user quickly identify the work and know they have found what they are looking for. Use for this purpose does not compete with the purposes of the original work, namely the book cover creator's ability to provide book cover design services and in turn marketing books to the public. |
| Replaceable? |
As a book cover, the image is not replaceable by free content; any other image that shows the packaging of the book would also be copyrighted, and any version that is not true to the original would be inadequate for identification or commentary. Using a different image in the infobox would be misleading as to the identity of the work. |

Fair use rationale for Flowers in the Attic[edit]
The use of this book cover in this article I, Kattiara17, believe to be fair use though the picture is subject to copyright, I feel it is covered by the U.S. fair use laws because:
- This reproduction of the book cover is of inferior resolution and quality than the original, and could not be used as an adequate replacement for the original.
- The image is used only to represent the book in question and no free equivalent is available or could be created that would adequately give the same information.
- The image is freely available from many other sources on the internet and its inclusion here does not to make it substantially more accessible than it already is.
- The use of the image here does not limit the copyright holder's ability to distribute, sell or promote the book in any way.
- Copies could not be used to make illegal copies of the book artwork.
Licensing[edit]
