[edit]Description |
This is the front cover art for the role-playing game core rulebook Fanhunter, el juego de rol épicodecadente written by Chema Pamundi. The role-playing game core rulebook cover art copyright is believed to belong to the publisher, Gusa Comics/Farsa's Wagon, or the cover artist, Cels Piñol. |

Source |
The image is derived from a digital capture (photo/scan) of the book cover. The creator of this digital version is irrelevant as the copyright in all equivalent images, whether appearing here for the purposes described below or elsewhere, is still held by the same party, that being the original owner, artist, or publisher. Claimed as fair use regardless. |

Portion used |
The entire front cover, comprising a relatively small portion of the commercial product as a whole. Because the image is a book cover, a form of product packaging, the entire image is needed to identify the product, properly convey the meaning and branding intended, and avoid tarnishing or misrepresenting the image. |
Low resolution? |
The copy is of sufficient resolution for commentary and identification but lower resolution than the original role-playing game core rulebook cover. Copies made from it will be of inferior quality, unsuitable as artwork on pirate versions or other uses that would compete with the commercial purpose of the original artwork. |
Purpose of use |
Main infobox. The image is used for identification in the context of critical commentary of the work for which it serves as cover art. It makes a significant contribution to the user's understanding of the article, which could not practically be conveyed by words alone. The image is placed in the infobox at the top of the article discussing the work, to show the primary visual image associated with the work, and to help the user quickly identify the work and know they have found what they are looking for. Use for this purpose does not compete with the purposes of the original work, namely the role-playing game core rulebook cover creator's ability to provide role-playing game core rulebook cover design services and in turn marketing role-playing game core rulebooks to the public. |
Replaceable? |
As a role-playing game core rulebook cover, the image is not replaceable by free content; any other image that shows the packaging of the role-playing game core rulebook would also be copyrighted, and any version that is not true to the original would be inadequate for identification or commentary. Using a different image in the infobox would be misleading as to the identity of the work. |
Other information |
Use of the book cover in the article complies with Wikipedia non-free content policy and fair use under United States copyright law as described above. Use of the book cover will not affect the value of the original work or the body of work to which it belongs, neither will it infringe upon the copyright holder's rights or ability to distribute the original. In particular, copies of this image could not be used to produce or distribute illegal copies of the book's primary content in part or whole, whether for personal use or purposes of commercial advantage or private financial gain, to the detriment of the original copyright holder. |
