Hello. I was reading Admiral carpet on EB and I saw a picture that had written "Courtesy of the Philadelphia Museum of Art, The Joseph Lees Williams Memorial Collection; photograph, Otto E. Nelson" -- I doubt just taking anything from EB would be fair use (in fact, pretty unfair since we're competition), however, would I have to get it straight from the museum's site and ask them to use it? Probably but, I was just curious about this issue. gren グレン 19:51, 29 August 2005 (UTC)


 * Actually, in this case it is OK to take the picture directly from Britannica because the design of the carpet is in public domain and since that is a 2D work of art, the photo is also in public domain.
