This is a screenshot of the video game Battlefield Heroes.

[edit] Fair use in Battlefield Heroes

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

1. Digital Illusions CE has released no such images into the public domain, and a replacement image could not be created that would adequately provide the same information.
2. It is a low resolution screenshot of a video game.
3. It does not limit the copyright owner's rights to sell the video game in any way.
4. The image is being used solely for informative purposes, as it serves to illustrate the form in which the game takes place.

This is a copyrighted image that has been released by a company or organization to promote their work or product in the media, such as advertising material or a promotional photo in a press kit. The copyright for it is most likely owned by the company who created the promotional item or the artist who produced the item in question; you must provide evidence of such ownership. Lack of such evidence is grounds for deletion. It is believed that the use of some images of promotional material to illustrate: the person(s), product, event, or subject in question where the image is unrepeatable, i.e. a free image could not be created to replace it 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 usage of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, might be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Non-free content and Wikipedia:Publicity photos. Additionally, the copyright holder may have granted permission for use in works such as Wikipedia. However, if they have, this permission likely does not fall under a free license.
