Update: More criteria as requested:
- "What proportion of the copyrighted work is used and to what degree does it compete with the copyright holder's usage?"
- It is a low-resolution image of past convention cover art. It does not compete.
- "If applicable, has the resolution been reduced from the original? In the case of music samples, has the quality been reduced from the original?"
- See above.
- What purpose does the image serve in the article? If applicable:
- Is the image a logo, photograph, or box art for the main subject of the article?
- Yes.
- Is the image being used as the primary means of visual identification of the subject or topic? (e.g., a corporate logo or the box art of a DVD)
- Yes.
- Does it illustrate the topic of the article? (e.g., a screen shot from a movie)
- Yes.
- Is it used for commentary on a particular topic? How?
- N/A.
- Why the subject can't be adequately conveyed by properly sourced text or using free content media.
- There is no official free content visual media pertaining to the Con.
- Is the image a logo, photograph, or box art for the main subject of the article?
- Any other information necessary to assist others in determining whether the use of this copyrighted work qualifies for fair use.
- Sadly, the artist Sang Lee, passed on a few years back. It is well within his legacy for this image to be used to demonstrate the character of PrinceCon -- in any context -- as he was an avid participant in the Con who contributed his art freely as a matter of dedication for over a decade. The fact that this artwork is "copyrighted" in this context is a mere technicality.
