| | Posted: | | | | If it's a cover contribution it's always helpful for the voters and the screeners to point out what's better on the new one. (Was posted by some other user in another thread, but I really think this is a good idea, so I "stole" this) With this information it's a lot of easier to see the improvments. (But never is a garant for an approvment)  |

Yeah... cover scans make all the difference in the world. They are so subjective that there is no reason to be concerned about them. What I do is if it goes through great... if not... that is fine too... I just lock mine locally and move on (as I obviously like mine better if I try to change it). Ah yes cover scans. i personally would like to use ALL my scans, not that they are better but just because they are mine!  but really i dont have a problem with scans where the "reddish hue" is off or things of that nature. as long as the dvd pic looks good in my online collection im cool. i'll change others in my local collection(like i have a Ichabod and mr. toad dvd from the disney movie club which came with a cool headless horseman slip cover! i already owned the dvd, bought it again just for that!! that scan HAS to be in my local collection!!)  |

If there is a profile but no scan I think a new scan will still allow anyone with that profile to vote, like any other non-scan update to the profile. | | | | It is dangerous to be right in matters where established men are wrong |

| | Posted: | | | | True, but why would anyone say that they prefer no scan before a new scan

| | Posted: | | | | If we would knew the UPC it would be easy to have clearness if there was an existing or not. (Perhaps as guessed: Approved, but not releesed at time of contibuting) | | | | Last edited: by VirusPil |
