This image is of a board game cover, and the copyright for it is most likely held by the publisher of the board game. It is believed that the use of low-resolution images of board game covers to illustrate the board game in question, where no free equivalent is available or could be created that would adequately give the same information, on the English-language Wikipedia, hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation, qualifies as fair use under the copyright law of the United States. Any other uses of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, may be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Non-free content for more information.

To the uploader: Please add a detailed non-free use rationale for each article the image is used in, which must also declare compliance with the other parts of the non-free content criteria, as well as the source of the work and copyright information. For example non-free use rationales, see Wikipedia:Use rationale examples. This tag should only be used for board game covers. Do not use it for other purposes. To patrollers and administrators: If this image has an appropriate rationale please append |image has rationale=yes as a parameter to the license template.

This image, Twilight-imperium-layout_12.jpg, is being linked here; though the picture is subject to copyright, I (Sigmazero13) feel it is covered by the U.S. fair use laws because:

1. it is a low resolution copy of a board game box cover;
2. it does not limit the copyright owner's rights to sell the board game in any way;
3. copies could not be used to make illegal copies of the board game artwork on another board game box;
4. the image on the board game cover is significant because it illustrates the game itself.
