[edit] Summary

Non-free / fair use media rationale for History of the Opera web browser
Description	Screenshot of Opera 9 viewing the Main Page
Source	I took this screenshot myself
Article	History of the Opera web browser
Portion used	Single screenshot of complex and dynamic program. Furthermore, the version of the program depicted is obsolete.
Low resolution?	No; the screenshot must be at full resolution for readability, but most of the screenshot is free-as-in-freedom Wikipedia content anyway.
Purpose of use	To identify and illustrate Opera 9
Replaceable?	No; it is extremely unlikely that this image will be released under a free license.
Other information	A screenshot of GNU/Linux is used instead of a screenshot of Microsoft Windows because the window manager GNOME is free as in freedom, thus reducing the amount of non-free content present in this screenshot.

[edit] Licensing

This is a screenshot of copyrighted computer software, and the copyright for its contents is most likely held by the author(s) or the company that created the software. It is believed that the use of a limited number of web-resolution screenshots:

for identification of and critical commentary on the software in question
in the absence of a free alternative,
on the English-language Wikipedia, hosted on servers in the United States by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation,

…qualifies as fair use under United States copyright law. 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 fair use rationale for each use, as described on Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline, as well as the source of the work and copyright information.

If this is a screenshot of free software (GPL, BSD, etc.) do not use this template! Use the license tag that correspond to the license instead, optionally alongside {{Free screenshot}} to categorize as a free screenshot.
