This is a good point. How do we license examples? Usage of the images as
examples is more of a fair use claim. Hmmm...I'm not sure about this,
but am pretty sure we can't allow uploads under public domain for
examples unless the entire image is in the public domain. 

Anyway, definitely we can't include trademarks in the images and then
release under say the files are under the public domain, as the
trademarks are not in the public domain...hmmmm....I think it would be
allowed to CC license a screenshot and make it clear that the trademark
usage is fair use ....hmmm...anyone have thoughts on this?
