[edit] Fair use for Discworld gods

This image Discworld_gods.jpg, is being linked here; though the picture is subject to copyright I (Eldestone) feel it is covered by the U.S. fair use laws because:

it is of much lower resolution and quality than the original (copies made from it will be of very inferior quality)
it does not limit the copyright owner's rights to sell the originating book
it is only being used for informational purposes to illustrate the character in question, which is not possible in any other way. Eldestone 06:56, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
