Whilst removing the white space is a good thing, a rescan would be better.

Due to the size restrictions, the original image was reduced to 443x500. Just removing the white space makes the image 443x310 - way below the usual 700x500 size.


Maybe he doesn't have a scanner so just doing his part for now...

what was wrong with this contr. ?

" removed the white field from the backsite "

Declined with no reason 


glancing at  the scan it doesn't resemble a regular  'rectanglular'  dvd case as  it looks too tall and too narrow for an actual true scan ..

I have a scanner but I didnt made this scan (I havent the DVD here now), otherwise it would have the correct size.
The front scan was correct, and its from a Slip Cover

Recontributed with the following notes
"Removed white space on right side of back cover "

But the white background color from the contr. site is a bit annoying in this case

You could add a link to your post with the pic to the contribution notes:
http://www.invelos.com/Forums.aspx?task=viewtopic&topicID=244711&PageNum=5&messageID=1386536#M1386536

From the screenshot you made I could understand why the screeners didn't see a difference.

And the noVoters said:
"I know this is more conform to the rules but imo it was OK for all that time and it fits nicely into the collection...so why change it"

But why do the screeners ignore this rule ? Can I contr. changes like this too, because the screeners dont care about the rules anymore ?

I would vote no to that as well... While it seems you would be right for the front cover... you would be wrong (and I would vote no every time) on the rear cover.... as that is not even the cover but a scan of the actual disc. The disc is not the cover and should not ever be in the cover images per Rules.

They may be ignoring the fact that what is up now breaks the rules... but they are saying no to something else that breaks the rules. I would say they were right since your contribution breaks the rules.

Apologize for the misunderstanding.

How did you put it in your notes?

Did you stress in your notes that this is the actual cover per the Rules?

It makes it harder when people are willing to vote against the rules even like that. With an even 2 for 2 against vote like that I am surprised they didn't go through... especially since the back cover isn't even a cover at all.

I would resubmit it... stressing that the current isn't per Rules... and that the rear image isn't even of the cover at all.

I voted yes on these Superman contribs. But I have different covers anyway (from a different release with same disc ids):

The screeners should not ignore the rules.  As Pete said, I would resubmit with a better explanation.  Something like...

"Submitting scans of actual case.  Per the rules, "Images must be of the front and back only."  Existing scans are of an insert and a disc, so are not allowed."

If, after that, they are declined again, I would open a support ticket.
No dictator, no invader can hold an imprisoned population by force of arms forever.
There is no greater power in the universe than the need for freedom.
Against this power, governments and tyrants and armies cannot stand.
The Centauri learned this lesson once.
We will teach it to them again.
Though it take a thousand years, we will be free.

Nope... that is not per Rules. When you have all discs in a single case such as a digipack you use the case from the parent profile for all the child profiles per Rules..
