Disputatio:Balrog
Would it be okay to use this image, a painting by John Howes, or would that be breaking copyright? --Vladisdead 05:34 dec 8, 2004 (UTC)
- Given the age of teh Middle-Earth mythos, nothing about it is usable unless the author's explicitly so released it. —Myces Tiberinus 15:13 dec 8, 2004 (UTC)
- The thing is, Balrogs have entered the collective "modern mythology", and are used in a lot more places than just Tolkien's works. A pic would be nice, if we can find one. --Vladisdead 05:01 dec 9, 2004 (UTC)
- That's true, but still, any media relating to balrogs is not going to be naturally public domain (i.e., older than the 1920's). For images, you'll need the author's permission. Actually... a screenshot from a movie it appears in may count as fair use.
- Or we could use a large magenta U, which is its representation in the roguelike game Angband :) —Myces Tiberinus 14:31 dec 9, 2004 (UTC)
