no FOP in the USA for artworks

Where does it state that an electronic Ad is considered an artwork? --Tiago Fioreze (talk) 20:35, 16 July 2009 (UTC)
- Everything which is not too simple to be eligible for copyright is copyrighted. Such copyrighted logos as ( Yamaha logo.svg or Panasonic logo (Blue).svg are indeed too simple to be eligible for copyright.
- Graffiti are also considered to be eligible for copyright because they show enough creativity. Why should be an ad less ineligible for copyright?

These are simple and dull ads, an absolute nobrainer and far from what I'd call artwork. -- H005 (talk) 22:16, 16 July 2009 (UTC)
- I guess if the ads would get uploaded to Commons they would get (seedy)deleted. These ads are not made simple texts or shapes (Except the "Budweiser" word, but the ad shows grain spikes which are not ineligible for copyright).

- Delete per D-Kuru. I'd also suggest that users familiarize themselves with Commons policies before making comments on deletions pages. In some countries even a simple signature is considered artwork. It really doesn't matter what we think is artwork or not, but what the law says.

Deleted. Copyrighted graphic works, not covered by US FOP (which wouldn't apply anyway because it is not a permanent display). Eusebius (talk) 10:38, 23 July 2009 (UTC)
