Is an alternative version of this photographic image available?

[edit]

Is there a different version of this photographic image? The copyright notice at the lower left-hand-corner indicated not only that the copyright belongs, technically, to the Press Association, but it is also the version specifically for use by the the Daily Mail. This is also clearly NOT of a low resolution. -- KC9TV 20:49, 14 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The image has been used in a series of publicity posters which can be seen at http://www.findmadeleine.com/support/light/downloads.html and I have uploaded a new version cropped from one of those. It is within the 100,000 pixel guideline for low resolution. TerriersFan (talk) 21:58, 14 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
This is better, I suppose. The problem with the McCann photographs are that the McCanns probably did sell her photographs to the British Press for a small profit [1], albeit obviously – or at least ostensibly – in aid of the "Find Maddie" campaign (although they would probably in return retain their right to their use without royalties). That photograph itself is not in the public domain. We certainly cannot be using one that has a higher resolution than one used by the Mail, I think! -- KC9TV 22:21, 14 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
