[edit] Fair use for Snowball (The Simpsons)
This image is being linked here; though the picture is subject to copyright I feel it is covered by the U.S. fair use laws because:
- It is a promotional image released by Fox
- it does not limit the copyright owners rights to sell the film in any way
- the image is provided at several official sources
- it allows for identification of the character: Snowball
