[edit] Summary

Self made screenshot of Windows Live Toolbar

[edit] Fair use rationale

This software is copyrighted, but its screenshot is being used in the Windows Live Toolbar article under U.S. fair use laws, because:

it helps to visually identify the software; in that sense it furthers the goal of providing verifiable information.
it does not limit, nor does it claim to, limit the rights of the copyright holder.
it does not, in any way, assist in illegal reproduction of the software or any other things covered by the license of the software.
it is being used for informational purposes.

The screenshot also includes portions of the chrome from Internet Explorer 7. Even though the article does not discuss IE7, its presence is also justified under fair use, as Windows Live Toolbar is an add-on to IE7. It cannot run unless hosted in Internet Explorer (version 6 or 7). Since neither version is free, screenshots of a freely licensable UI chrome cannot be provided. The presence of portions of IE7 UI also:

does not limit, nor does it claim to, limit the rights of the copyright holder.
does not, in any way, assist in illegal reproduction of the software or any other things covered by the license of the software.
is being used for informational purposes.

The screesnhot also shows content from an article in Wikipedia. The article in question is Sunrise, and the content of the article is licensed under GFDL,

[edit] Licensing

This is a screenshot of copyrighted computer software, and the copyright for its contents is most likely held by the author(s) or the company that created the software. It is believed that the use of a limited number of web-resolution screenshots:

for identification of and critical commentary on the software in question
in the absence of a free alternative,
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.

If this is a screenshot of free software (GPL, BSD, etc.) do not use this template! Use the license tag that correspond to the license instead, optionally alongside {{Free screenshot}} to categorize as a free screenshot.
