1. Purpose and character of the use: 2. Nature of the copyrighted work: 3. Amount used: 4. Effect of the use on the potential market or value of the image:

"Purpose" and "Nature" seem self-evident. What is meant by "Amount used"? I imagine that "Effect" would mean, regarding a DVD cover for instance, whether someone could "pirate" the image for personal use? Olessi 06:24, 9 December 2005 (UTC)


 * Check out Image:Alaura Eden.jpg. Basically "Amount used" refers to how much of the original picture was used (for instance, the person would write in here that the image was cropped). Also the effect deals with any potential reuse for commercial purposes -- a low-res box cover scan, for instance, would not be usable or suitable for making bootlegged movie covers. -- Joe Beaudoin Jr. Think out loud 17:03, 9 December 2005 (UTC)
