WAY 79

Portion used

The entire logo is used to convey the meaning intended and avoid tarnishing or misrepresenting the intended image.

Low resolution?

The logo is of a size and resolution sufficient to maintain the quality intended by the company or organization, without being unnecessarily high resolution.

Purpose of use

The image is used to identify the brand WAY 79, a subject of public interest.

Other information

Use of this image to illustrate article black swan is believed to be appropriate under fair use provisions and Wikipedia fair use policy on the grounds that:

  • It represents a prominent cultural reference to black swans, both in the portrayal of the animal itself, and in the way that it leverages the emblematic relationship between black swans and Western Australia.
  • It is extremely unlikely that we will be able to find a free or suitably licensed example of a logo that uses a black swan. If a fair use image is to be used for this purpose, this one would be ideal, because it no longer has any commercial value, nor even signifies a current commercial entity.
