[edit] Summary

Single cover for Roxy Music's Love is the Drug

[edit] Licensing

This image is of a cover of an audio recording, and the copyright for it is most likely owned by either the publisher of the album or the artist(s) which produced the recording or cover artwork in question. It is believed that the use of low-resolution images of such covers

solely to illustrate the audio recording in question,
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.

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. For an example fair use rationale, see here.

[edit] Fair use in Love Is the Drug

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

It is a low resolution copy (337 × 291 pixel) of a CD album cover.
It does not limit the copyright owner's rights to sell the CD album in any way.
Copies could not be used to make illegal copies of the album artwork on another CD.
The image on the cover is significant because it was made by a famous artist, Roxy Music.

Therefore, only link to this image if the link is used to illustrate the album Viva!. Pie.er 11:55, 23 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Resolution

The current resolution is medium to low, 337 × 291 pixel. For the use in the article Love Is the Drug, it could however be lower even, I guess it could be scaled down to a width of 220 pixels. This would not affect the quality shown on Wikipedia, but would be slightly better for page loading times and would be on the safer side of the copyright issue. If someone is capable of changing the resolution of this picture, please do so. Pie.er 11:55, 23 April 2007 (UTC)
