suggestion of case
[edit]I don't know if it belongs on this page, or on another page, but wikipedia needs to add a reference to the Getty Images suit regarding the album cover of Fatboy Slim's "Halfway between the Gutter and the Stars".

- Most cases won't make it to Wikipedia, unless they're notable for their effect on the law, culture, the parties, or in some other way . This particular case never went to court, but settled, so it's not going to have had a significant effect on the law. According to this article, the case settled for $25k in 2002, so it doesn't seem like it made a significant financial impact on anybody. So, from my perspective (as a copyright lawyer / wikipedian), this is not a particularly notable case. If someone involved in those industries can demonstrate notability of the case in ways other than legally, go for it. --Lquilter (talk) 18:59, 7 April 2014 (UTC)
