| | Posted: | | | | I've 'contributed' a few DVD's missing from your database and when doing so I get a window flash up with a check box asking if I want to include the cover art. Trouble is I can't check the check box. It wont let me! S  o the profile is being uploaded with out the cover. Is there a trick i've missed somewhere? | | | | Gonna jump...gonna jump... |

| | Posted: | | | | Have you added the Front scan as well? The only time I've noticed that the box is greyed out is if the front is missing. |

| | Posted: | | | | That's the problem then. You have to submit both front and back cover scans. |

| | Posted: | | | | The Contribution Rules state: Images must be of the front and back only.I do not quite understand what your problem with doing back cover scans is. It works the same way as front cover scans. If you pick any DVD in your collection, choose DVD / Edit Cover Images. At the left bottom of the screen that opens, you'll see "Front Image" and "Back Image" next to each other, so you can choose which one to edit. Or could it perhaps be that you have chosen a programme layout which only displays the front image? Many layouts will display both front and back covers, so if this is the problem you might try a different layout. |

| | Posted: | | | | If you don't have a back cover scan available, and you don't have access to a scanner device. You can simply copy and paste the front cover to the back cover location.
This is allowed for prereleases also. It's better to have a small even low res cover of the front image, than no image at all. | | | View my collection at http://www.chriskepolis.be/home/dvd.htm
