Summary edit

Screenshot (big) of the PC computer game "Battle Dex". You can see on overhead view of a gameboard and a highlighted card. The developers have been contacted about the use of this image in Wikipedia and they approve.

Fair use rationale in Battle Dex edit

It is contended that the use of this image qualifies as fair use in the article Battle Dex because:

• The games publisher has released no such images into the public domain, and a replacement image could not be created that would adequately provide the same information.
• The image is being used for identification purposes in the article on Battle Dex.
• Simple prose could not generate the same identification abilities in the context of the above article.
• The image resolution has been significantly decreased from the original, so copies made from it would be of inferior quality
• The use of this image neither detracts from the game nor inhibits its salability in any way.

Licensing edit
