VOL.jpg‎ (270 × 216 pixels, file size: 64 KB, MIME type: image/jpeg)

A screenshot from the music video for the Mariah Carey single "Vision of Love" (1990). Image copyright is owned by Columbia Records.

This image is a screenshot from a copyrighted music video or promotional video for a music artist, and the copyright for it is most likely owned by the producers of the video and possibly also by the music artist. It is believed that the use of a limited number of web-resolution screenshots for identification and critical commentary on the music video 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 well as the source of the work and copyright information.

[edit] Rationale of fair use for Vision of Love

The image VOL.jpg is being linked here; though the picture is originally copyright, I (Extraordinary Machine 01:34, 17 August 2006 (UTC)) feel it is covered by fair use because:

1. The image is a screenshot from a promotional music video originally created by Columbia Records, and intended for wide distribution.
2. No free or public domain images have been located for this single.
3. The image does not limit the copyright owners' rights to distribute the single or music video in any way.
4. For an article containing discussions of a music video, a screenshot is arguably the most important image that could be included. This is a screenshot from the video, intended by Columbia Records for wide distribution. As such, it has future historical significance, and is a more appropriate choice than any other image available.
5. Its inclusion in the article is important because it suggests something of the video's style.
6. The image is being used for informational purposes only, and its use is not believed to detract from the original single or music video in any way.
