Summary

Non-free media information and use rationale true for Facebook
Description	A login form is seen on the left and a registration form is on the right. This is the default homepage for users who are not logged in.
Source	http://thefacebook.com/
Article	Facebook
Portion used	Profile. Single frame; the image is used to convey the meaning intended and avoid tarnishing or misrepresenting the intended image.
Low resolution?	Yes
Purpose of use	Identification and critical/historical commentary in the Facebook article, a subject of public interest. The significance of the image is to help the reader identify the profile page of Facebook in Feb 2005, almost a year after its launch and to assure the readers that they have reached the right article containing critical commentary about the subject at hand, and illustrate it in a way that words alone could not convey.
Replaceable?	No, because the design changed. And because it is a screenshot, there is almost certainly no free equivalent. Any substitute that is not a derivative work would fail to convey the meaning intended, would tarnish or misrepresent its image, or would fail its purpose of identification or commentary.
