Fair use for Hollywood Potato Chip
This image, Variety.comlogo.jpg, is being linked here; though the picture is subject to copyright I IllaZilla 20:22, 5 August 2007 (UTC) feel it is covered by the U.S. fair use laws because:
 * 1) it is a copyrighted logo of a magazine and its accompanying website, and therefore by definition no free image alternative can be created without infringing on the copyright;
 * 2) it does not limit the copyright owner's rights to sell or promote their products or services in any way;
 * 3) it meets the guidelines for fair use detailed in Logos in that "generally, logos should be used only when the logo is reasonably familiar (or when the logo itself is of interest for design or artistic reasons)." The logo is reasonably familiar and it design is a subject of discussion in the article.
 * 4) the image contributes significantly to a portion of the article discussing a change in the cover artwork of The Vandals album Hollywood Potato Chip due to a legal controversy initiated by Variety in which the company claimed that the band's style of lettering in the album cover infringed on the copyright of the magazine's logo.
