Dear Certified Contributors,

Sara K... and Pommel have flagged the fact that the instructions for uploading release visuals were outdated. We have now updated them according to the official editor guidelines:

If you have other questions on this matter, ask away Smile

PS: We still have 13.104 releases without visuals, so we look forward to your help Wink

Read. Bastien, what about releases where I only find label images but I am not sure if there potentially is an image cover (how can you prove the nonexistence of something...you always might just have not looked well enough)? Should I upload these as main image or as attachment? And what for releases in generic covers? Upload the image with the generic cover (company sleeves) or just the label? Questions upon questions.....

Good questions, Pommel

what about releases where I only find label images but I am not sure if there potentially is an image cover (how can you prove the nonexistence of something...you always might just have not looked well enough)? Should I upload these as main image or as attachment?

I'd say main image, as long as you use the circular crop.

And what for releases in generic covers? Upload the image with the generic cover (company sleeves) or just the label? Questions upon questions.....

Just the label, with a circular crop.

Pommel

A concrete example?

Not really right away, but I seem to remember i.e. 12" where it is not clear to me if there is potentially a picture cover existing but just not submitted on Discogs or if the 12" was only released in a generic cover anyways.
