Recent cover image uploads
Thanks for uploading cover images to the ISFDB database. Unfortunately, these files are larger than the stated standards allow. At 1800+ pizels, they are taller than the current ISFDB limit for cover image files, which is no more than 600 pixels. I will resize them and re-upload them to the database. Please keep these limits in mind when making future uploads.

The next step is to link those images to the records of the books for which these are the covers. As the instructions (step 6) explain:


 * Once the file has been uploaded, the image's wiki page will appear. In order to get the URL (address) for the image you just uploaded, left click anywhere on the image and copy the URL from your browser's address window. (Or right click on the image and choose "Copy Image Location".) If you're adding a cover image to a pub record, this is the URL which you would enter into the pub record's "Image URL" field.

So once you have the image's URL, go back to the pub record (it's linked on the image's wiki page) and then click the "Edit This Pub" link under the Editing Tools menu. This opens up an edit page. Under the Publication Metadata section, there's a field labeled "Image URL:" Enter the URL of the image you uploaded into this field, and then click on the "Submit Data" button at the bottom of the page. Once the submission has been moderated the cover image will be linked to the publication record. Thanks for contributing. Mhhutchins 15:41, 28 October 2013 (UTC)
