ALF.jpg‎ (640 × 483 pixels, file size: 29 KB, MIME type: image/jpeg)

This is the pictue of ALF from the TV series, making it fair use in the article ALF (TV series) for critical commentary and identification. It is fair use because calling him a little furry alien doesn't do him justice but the picture helps. It is irreplaceable because I'd be sued for making a fake ALF picture.
