No, adjusting for the scale difference, ~20% is cropped off the sides.

That still doesn't look fair to me, that's the main portion of the pic, right at the center.

Yes, that would be true even if more than half were cropped off (and it's not). Fair Use is all about the spirit: there is no fraction that always constitutes a "substantial portion" for every work. (That is, even if 90% of a work is left out, the remaining 10% might be the most important part, and an attempt to claim Fair Use would fail.)

[up]Nope. It ain't from one of the graphic novels, doesn't show up on a Discworld-related GIS, and isn't what one would typically get fanart-wise based on a description of Death in the books.

That was the amazing part. Things just keep going.

Fanart, then, but I couldn't find a source for it either. I'd say that whether we find the source or not, the potholing in the caption needs to go away.

Hrrrrm, given how easy this trope is, and given that this pic might be fanart, maybe we could make a thread and replace it.

If this or [1] are the source, it's probably fanart.

The second gallery says it's from the Fountain of Wizardry, which is apparently a Discworld fanart site. Googling the Japanese name, I found it here. Reading the comments, it seems to be fanart.

The second one also sources it to a Japanese Discworld community.

Large Ham: the main page image is clearly photoshopped, and the only GIS match is this person's Deviant Art profile image: http://circe-nausicca.deviantart.com/

Since it's a profile image she may have got it from TV Tropes. But this still needs a clear source.

Why is that even on the main page of Large Ham and not LargeHam.Star Trek? I don't know about source, but if we decide to keep that pic, it should be moved to the Star Trek subpage.

please don't capitalize my handle. I just don't like it.

Yep, I just looked into the history a bit and noticed... but was that determined before the ruling about pages with medium-specific subpages?

Hokay, so the subpage-thing was said on 19th Aug '11, and keeping the page image on 23rd Feb '12, so whatever. I don't see a point in asking then.

Also, If It's You, It's Okay has an unsourced fan comic that's merely linked to Batman.

The IPD in the source points to this Photobucket page. I don't think it's from a work we can have a page for.

The image of Cowboy BeBop at His Computer has no source given despite apparenty being the trope namer.

It's the picture from an old newspaper article. I have no idea what newspaper, and I can think of no way to find out which one it was.

Looks like Albert Uderzo's drawing style, At a guess, I'd say it's from Iznogoud.

Must be from a Franco-Belgian Comics.
