[edit] Summary

This picture was taken by me, Brusselsshrek, with a SONY DCR-HC40E using the photo option. It was slightly modified in the top left and bottom right using Jasc PaintShop Pro in order to hide a slightly damaged book spine. The colours are not as true as I would like them to be - the actual Bible is a marbled pillar-box red with gold-coloured lettering. I experimented with different colour backgrounds, and this is the version which gave the closest to the true colours.

Non-free / fair use media rationale for New International Version
Description	Cover of New International Version by International Bible Society.
Source	Photograph taken by image uploader.
Article	New International Version
Portion used	Only the book's front cover is used. This image is only a small portion of the commercial product.
Low resolution?	The image is of sufficient resolution for illustration, but considerably lower resolution than original. Any copies made from this image would be of inferior quality, unsuitable as artwork on pirate versions or other uses that would compete with the commercial purpose of the original artwork. The image does not in any way limit the ability of the copyright owners to market or sell their product.
Purpose of use	This book cover is used as the primary means of visual identification of the book for informational and educational purposes. 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.
Replaceable?	As a book cover, this image is protected by copyright; any other image that shows the cover of the book would also be copyrighted, and any version that is not true to the original would be inadequate for identification or commentary.
Other information	Use of this image in the above article complies with Wikipedia non-free content policy and fair use under United States copyright law as described above.

[edit] Licensing

This image is of a book cover, and the copyright for it is most likely owned either by the artist who created the cover or the publisher of the book. It is believed that the use of low-resolution images of book covers

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:Non-free content for more information.

To the uploader: please add a detailed fair use rationale for each use, as described on Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline, as well as the source of the work and copyright information. Please include in your fair use rationale details of the particular edition (publisher, market & year of publication) of the edition you have used, and also acknowledge any cover artist if such artist is acknowledged in that edition's frontmatter. If the book cover is in the public domain (see Wikipedia:Public domain), then use the appropriate public domain tag rather than this one.
