Wfm_emily_strange_fairuse_poster.jpg (350 × 236 pixel, file size: 21 KB, MIME type: image/jpeg)

An image of comic character Emily Strange and her four black cats.

This image obtained (and uploaded unmodified) from online retailer wickedcoolstuff, where it is a thumbnail image used for marketing a much larger poster.

Fair use is contended for the following reasons:

  • only a small, low-resolution version is present
  • no free alternative is available (as all extant representations of the character are copyrighted)
  • it is not likely to (negatively) affect the value or sales of the original work (indeed, the creator's intention in generating this thumnail work was to enhance sales).
  • it is not possible to reproduce by another means (as tha character is trademarked)

I have emailed the franchise owner to request permission, no response yet. -- Finlay McWalter | Talk 14:04, 19 May 2004 (UTC)
